Founded on the most advanced technological innovation and ongoing research of current trends and requirements, the new Corkcomfort product line has allowed Wicanders to create a new flooring philosophy, revolutionising cork floors’ traditional concept.
Corkcomfort brings to life ceramic, stone, metal and leather patterns, enhancing cork’s role in interior design. New attributes emerge, as this collection reinterprets style, elegance and the sophistication of different materials. The result is an infi nite pallet of remar kable surfaces with innovative dimensions (600 x 450 mm), allowing the creation of the most diverse range of environments, enriched by the unique qualities and visual elegance of cork. Corkcomfort was also enhanced with advanced texturising, painting and bevelling processes that provide depth and intensity to any space, ensuring the versatility of any choice. Corkcomfort starts out a new approach in decoration, in harmony with nature and human emotions.
Amorim Revestimentos, a company of the Portuguese Amorim Group, with over 130 years of specialisation in selected cork products, has developed unique fl ooring and wall covering solutions throughout its history. Amorim Revestimentos sells its products in more than 51 countries and is known throughout the world as a pioneer in creating top-quality, groundbreaking solutions.
Reflecting a highly sustainable development, the Amorim Group developed a revolutionary process that is adapted to nature’s rhythms. The first extraction of cork from the cork oak tree occurs only twenty-five years after planting, following which it is harvested in nine-year cycles, without ever damaging the tree in any way. This method allows the cork oak forest – montado - to fulfil its role of fixing CO2, thus actively contributing to reduce global warming.
With solid technological know-how in developing cork-based flooring, Wicanders has innovated in the vinyl flooring market, presenting a pioneering product for home and commercial spaces.
Thanks to its unique characteristics, Vinylcomfort distinguishes from traditional glue-down LVT floors by presenting itself in a floating solution, being also superior to other existing vinyl floating solutions, due to a more advanced structure that incorporates an additional cork layer.
The natural characteristics of cork provide greater walking comfort, as well as improved acoustic properties. The double cork layer also plays a fundamental role in providing heat insulation, offering you unrivalled comfort with reduced energy costs, improving eco-efficiency.
