Classic Medium Shade Unfinished Cork Tile | WECORK Classic Collection, Glue-Down
The unfinished version of the Classic Medium Shade tile, for installs where the finish is applied on site, typically to match adjacent flooring or hit a specific sheen.
Homogenous through the full thickness
Classic tiles are homogenous, meaning the material is the same cork the whole way down rather than a wear layer over a core. They sand and refinish like a hardwood floor. On a commercial install that changes the lifecycle math: a floor that can be refinished rather than replaced.
Sample sizes
- 4" x 4" cut sample, for a quick color read
- 12" x 12" full-sized tile, the actual installed tile size
Why cork
Cork holds roughly 200 million air cells per cubic inch. It absorbs impact and airborne sound rather than reflecting it, acts as a natural thermal barrier so the floor stays warm over slab and basement subfloors, and compresses and returns to near 100%, like standing on air all day. Cork is naturally hypoallergenic; the suberin in the bark resists mold, mildew, and dust mites with no chemical treatment and no VOC off-gassing. The bark is stripped every nine years and the tree is never cut.
