[San Diego] Cali has officially announced its launch of a new collection of cork flooring – Cali Cork. According to the company, the fresh, four-SKU line-up ushers in an improved generation of cork while remaining true to the material’s renewable and planet-safe roots. A high resistance finish and water-resistant construction make Cali cork a more durable upgrade from the cork planks of yesteryear, the company said. Plus, a 15-year residential and 5-year commercial warranty make this collection an attractive option for storefronts and fitness studios.

Indeed, Cali’s next generation of cork plank flooring is stronger, more water resistant and extra sustainable, the company said. Four colors offer easy neutrals made to refresh homes and add cushioned comfort. As a renewable resource, the company announced Cali cork is environmentally friendly, healthy and comfortable.

Cork is naturally renewable; the material is trimmed from the bark of the cork oak tree and regenerates without harming the plant or surrounding environment. The cork in this flooring is also recycled, demonstrating cork’s ability to be reprocessed over and over for different uses. Customers looking to purchase responsibly and opt for products that do no harm the environment will take heart in cork’s bona fide sustainability story.

Planks in this inaugural collection are topped with a high resistance finish, making them easier to clean and better protected from scratches and the build-up of dirt. The cork material in planks’ top beauty layer and bottom underlayment is naturally water resistant, sound insulating, antimicrobial and temperature regulating. Thanks to its spongey composition, cork is highly cushioning and capable of absorbing impacts without losing its shape, all of which promises quieter, more comfortable rooms that keep joints, homes and the planet happy.

Additionally, the company stated Cali cork is Greenguard certified, ensuring it’s safe for homes with children and pets. Its nontoxic construction and forgiving surface make this flooring especially ideal for nurseries and kids' rooms.

Cali cork planks are lightweight, click-lock milled, and measure 35-5/8" long, 11-5/8" wide and 7/16” thick. Boards come in packs of eight for a total of 22.99 square feet per carton and can be floated or glued down.
