Manufacturer: Premium Floors
MJO Cafe Collection is a range of coloured, partly pre-finished cork tiles with a slightly chamfered edge which only require one coat of water-based polyurethane after installation instead of the traditional 3! As with all cork tiles, the Cafe Collection will vary in colour, shade and texture from tile to tile.
The elegant range of Cafe inspired colours in the range is beautifully suited to today's modern decor. Combine this with the quiet, comfortable and warm benefits of a cork floor and you can be assured that the Cafe Collection is a floor you will love for many years to come!
Warm Underfoot
Cork is a natural insulator of heat and so feels very warm underfoot. In contrast, ceramic tiles for example, are a conductor of heat and tend to absorb the natural body heat from your feet, feeling cold.
Soft To Walk On
As cork is simply millions of aircells trapped in a honey coloured casing, walking on cork tiles is like walking on an air cushion! In addition, many people who have lived on cork will tell you plates or cups dropped on a cork floor will often bounce instead of breaking!
Quiet Underfoot
Cork is naturally an excellent insulator of sound making it very quiet to walk on.
The natural characteristics of cork make cork floors an excellent choice for any residential or light commercial application.
Environmentally friendly
Cork Floor Tiles are incredibly environmentally friendly. Firstly, harvesting a cork oak tree at regular intervals is considered essential for the physiological recovery of the tree. Unlike any other tree, harvesting a cork oak's bark lengthens its life making the harvesting process environmentally friendly.
In addition, cork tiles are effectively manufactured from waste cork product. After the bark of the cork oak is harvested and dried, the manufacturing of cork stoppers (for wine bottles etc.) takes place. The waste that remains (after holes punched through it from the manufacturing of wine bottle corks) is then ground up and used for the manufacture of cork tiles. The fact that cork floor tiles are made from the waste of an already environmentally friendly resource makes it even more environmentally friendly!
A Lifetime Floor
When you're purchasing a cork floor, you're purchasing a floor for life. If you maintain your floor well, your Cafe Collection cork floor will continue to look good for many years to come. Re-coating your floor every now and then will help ensure the good looks of your Cafe Collection Cork floor last and last.
Easy to Clean and Maintain
Cork floors are very easy to keep clean and maintain. The occasional sweep & light wash will keep your floor clean, whilst occasionally polishing or re-coating your cork floor will replenish the coated surface as it wears throughout the years. In fact, in years gone by, Choice Magazine named cork floors the easiest floorcovering to keep clean and maintain.
