Reasons why one should choose Hydrocork over other wood or laminated floating floors despite the higher cost
- Sound transmission – Hydrocork has a 16db impact sound transmission reducing noise in the room and in adjoining rooms next door and underneath and above – of special relevance in hotels, clubs, public areas and other high traffic areas such as corridors.
- The same Hydrocork design can be installed in corridors, kitchens and bathrooms
- The Hydrocork is ideal for renovations as it is only 6mm thick and it is not necessary to shorten curtains or raise the level of existing doors
- Hydrocork can be installed directly on top of existing floors including tiles
- Hydrocork has a unique press fit system which makes it easy and less expensive to replace damaged areas
- Hydrocork is waterproof and will not shrink when it gets wet leaving gaps as is the case with engineered floors and laminates
- Hydrocork has impressive acoustic and thermal qualities, reducing noise and keeping the room warm in winter and cool in summer hence reducing expensive air conditioning costs
- Hydrocork comes with a 15 year guarantee from the manufacturer for contract use and 25 years for residential use
- Hydrocork has no toxic chemicals and is much healthier no wooden or laminated floors have any of the above qualities
