cork

Cork flooring

Cork is made from the bark of a cork tree and is a rapidly renewable resource. The tree is never cut down; the bark is simply stripped off and given time to regenerate. 

Cork floors have a natural design that creates a homey and warm environment while offering enhanced durability for high-traffic areas.  

This material offers unmatched antibacterial properties and is hypoallergenic — making cork great for spaces frequented by people with allergies. 

Cork is also great at absorbing sounds and has a high degree of stability, meaning that cork flooring will be sound-proof and durable. This makes it suitable for use in creche playrooms, conference rooms, or office space.  

Solid wood flooring

Hardwood floors are a great finish for industrial and residential properties. It is low maintenance and gives any area a high-end finish.

Hardwood floors are made from renewable and recyclable materials. Wood also requires less energy during manufacturing than other flooring counterparts. 

Wooden floors use planks with almost 0% wasted material. Most of the tree is used to make planks or other products, producing minimal waste. 

However, if the eco-friendly products aren’t sourced correctly this could potentially contribute to deforestation. At AllFloors, we aim to source products from sustainably managed forests to ensure there is no excessive depletion of natural resources.

Wool carpets

Sheep regrow their coats every year and need to be sheared regularly. Therefore, wool is a sustainable source that can easily be replenished. Wool carpets also provide long-lasting durability, and as a natural fibre, it doesn’t shed microplastics. 

Wool boasts good thermal regulation properties. It is generally easy to clean and requires little maintenance. Made from natural fibres, wool also does not contribute to the shedding of microplastics. Moreover, this biodegradable material can be dyed in many colours, so you can easily find a new carpet to match your decor. 

Wool carpets work well for making an area feel warmer and are very comfortable underfoot. These carpets also help reduce serious injuries from accidental falls, as they provide a minimal level of cushioning. This can protect your family from seriously getting hurt or safeguard your business from injury claims.  

Marmoleum

Marmoleum is made from all-natural raw materials and helps to remove Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. In fact, Marmoleum is so good at its job that it reduces more CO2 than what it takes to produce marmoleum products.  

A marmoleum floor is anti-bacterial and inhibits the growth and spread of infections. These properties will be helpful in healthcare centres, food preparation areas or dining areas where hygiene is key. 

Marmoleum is also an allergy-friendly choice, as it doesn’t collect allergens or dust mites. This will enhance the quality of life for allergy sufferers using the room on a daily basis.

frequently asked questions

Eco-floors are also known as sustainable flooring. Green energy isn’t the only way to make a difference or lessen your environmental impact. Simply opting for a new floor made from sustainable materials is a small step towards making a significant difference. 

Eco floors use recycled or easily replenished materials and little to no chemicals in their manufacturing process. This helps reduce the manufacturer’s carbon footprint, and by purchasing these products, you’re making an investment in the sustainability of the planet. 

Bamboo is one of the most eco-friendly materials. Bamboo is harvested without killing the plant, allowing it to quickly regrow and regenerate and making it easy to replenish. Bamboo shoots can grow about a foot or 12 inches per day, supplying durable and flexible material for sustainable products like high-quality flooring.

Aside from lowering your carbon footprint, opting for products made from naturally occurring resources offers many benefits. You can expect: 

  • Better indoor air quality: Natural flooring solutions tend to have lower or no volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. This helps protect your family or employees from the associated health risks, such as eye, nose and throat irritation, headaches and nausea, central nervous system damage and worse. 

  • Improved energy efficiency: Certain naturally occurring materials, like wool, have good insulation. This helps regulate indoor temperatures and reduce energy consumption, as you’ll rely less on heating systems. 

  • Longer-lasting floors: We supply products made from raw materials that are durable and maintain their shape for long periods. These natural substances are used to withstand rough environmental conditions, so they will perform well in your interiors. 

  • Increase property value: Properties with sustainable elements increase market value as more buyers are interested in investing in a greener future. Sustainable floor coverings can also help meet green building standards.  

These flooring systems are beneficial to both homeowners and businesses. 

Using laminate for your project will have great aesthetic and environmental appeal if you choose the correct laminate product. Laminate flooring is made up of recycled materials, but laminate pieces are usually held together using toxic glues. So, before you purchase laminate products, be sure to scrutinise the manufacturer’s list of materials. 

Alternatively, you can trust AllFloors to source environmentally friendly laminate in any design you want for your project.
