In our project, we show you how to install natural 12-in. unfinished cork tile over a sound plywood underlayment. This is just one of a wide variety of cork flooring products that are available.

Like a cushion underfoot, cork flooring also eases stress on your back and legs, making it a good fit for any place in your home where you'll be standing for long stretches of time, like kitchens ...

This flooring is "floated" in that it is not glued or nailed directly to the subfloor, but laid on an underlayment -- in our example, cork, although 1/8-inch foam is also used.
