Cork, as a natural product, warms and enriches any interior. Cork flooring always blends in well with other decors and furniture and is available in a wide range of colors.
Jelinek Cork floor coverings are of the finest quality resulting from strictly supervised production and on-going quality control procedures.

Whether in a child’s room, family room, music room, kitchen, or bathroom – a cork floor is always the correct choice. It is tough, resilient and water resistant. It absorbs sound and provides acoustical excellence. Being highly abrasion resistant, these floors are often also used in public buildings including schools, hospitals, gyms and workout rooms, yoga and exercise centers, restaurants, hotels, shops and offices.
