Description

Product Overview

Introducing the QUIETCORK 12mm Cork Sheet Underlayment, a premium-grade, eco‑friendly solution designed for a wide range of flooring applications. Crafted from sustainably harvested cork in Portugal, this sheet combines natural resilience with superior acoustic and thermal performance. Measuring 24×36 inches (61×91 cm) and weighing only 3 pounds, the sheet is lightweight yet robust, allowing for effortless handling, cutting, and installation. The 12mm thickness provides a balanced profile that absorbs impact, reduces vibration, and offers a stable base for various floor coverings, including hardwood, laminate, tile, and carpet.

Key specifications include a density of approximately 0.25 g/cm³, a compressive strength that exceeds industry standards, and a moisture resistance that helps protect subfloors from humidity fluctuations. The product is certified by the European Union’s REACH regulation and carries the FSC® label, confirming its responsible sourcing and low environmental impact. Whether you are renovating a residential living space, outfitting a commercial office, or preparing a studio environment, this cork underlayment delivers consistent performance and long‑term durability.

Usage

Designed for versatility, the QUIETCORK underlayment excels in both residential and commercial settings. In homes, it is ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices where noise reduction and comfort underfoot are paramount. The natural acoustic properties of cork help mute footfall sounds, making it an excellent choice for multi‑unit dwellings or apartments where neighbor noise can be a concern.

In commercial environments such as retail stores, restaurants, and conference rooms, the underlayment contributes to a quieter, more pleasant atmosphere for both employees and customers. Its thermal insulation properties also help maintain consistent indoor temperatures, reducing heating and cooling loads and supporting sustainability goals. For studios, workshops, and gyms, the sheet provides a resilient surface that cushions equipment and reduces wear on the primary flooring, extending the life of both the underlayment and the finished floor.

Installation is straightforward: the sheet can be laid directly over concrete, plywood, or existing subfloors. It can be cut with a utility knife or fine‑toothed saw to fit around obstacles, and seams can be sealed with a compatible cork adhesive for a seamless finish. The product’s low VOC emissions ensure a healthy indoor air quality, making it suitable for spaces where occupants may have sensitivities.
