To meet the high standards of acoustic performance expected in the project of the new Four Seasons building in Bangkok, a cork underscreed with recycled rubber was applied to the entire area of the hotel, including common areas. The flooring was then finished with laminated wood and ceramic material.

An underscreed is a resilient sublayer applied on the floor, between the structural slab and the screed, during the construction process. The placement of underscreed does not restrict the choice for the final flooring and can be used with wood, ceramic, laminated or resilient (LVT) floors. It is also compatible with f…

Inspired by techniques used in the traditional molding of shoe soles, Lisboa and Porto are acoustically absorptive composite cork wall tiles composed of 16” square modules that are easily installed with a special pressure-fit rail system. Their design references Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer’s ceramic tiles, where…

Depending on the field of application, we find different materials that can compete with cork. For example, in the case of electric mobility, the most commonly-used materials for thermal management and sealing are silicone sponges, polyurethane foams and ceramic materials (micas). In the T&D Transmission and Distri…

Recycled and sustainable accessories for flooring systems. Our range of underlayment may consist of cork agglomerate or contain other recycled materials, such as PU, Recycled Rubber or EVA. Compared to synthetic materials, cork is the right choice when looking for a solution that guarantees performance but is also sust…

You are in the process of building or renovating your house and, among the many options available, you have finally found the ideal floor for your decoration project.

From ceramic tiles to wood, laminate and vinyl floors, the flooring options available on the market are so diversified that choosing is not always easy. To make the process easier, besides personal taste and the budget available, keep these aspects in mind: Where in the home will it be applied? The function of the spa…

To attenuate IIC noise in floor assemblies, a Resilient or Sound Control Underlayment is required. The correct Underlayment will provide the resilience required for code complaint IIC noise reduction and the structural stability required for a responsible flooring installation. Floating hardwood or laminate flooring ar…

Applied between the subfloor and final floor, the underlay provides a decisive contribution to the overall performance of the flooring system, in terms of durability, thermal comfort, acoustic insulation, and energy efficiency. Although selection of the specific type of underlay can vary in function of the floor chosen…

An underlay is much more than just something you place under the flooring. The underlay is part of a solid foundation that can determine the floor’s performance in terms of acoustic properties and comfort, while also adding to its lifespan. Even though it is not visible, it can still be felt and perceived thanks to the…

To answer Spinneybeck's criteria and demands of its new collection, Amorim Cork Composites developed materials, processes and tools to produce the cork tiles designed by Lars Beller Fjetland. Inspired by techniques used in traditional shoe sole molding, Lisboa and Porto tiles are acoustically absorptive composite cork…

The first solutions in this market were primarily made of paperboard and wood chipboards. The improvement and fine-tuning of safety standards led to the creation of better performing alternative solutions. At that time, foams took a foothold in the market (made from oil industry waste) and, almost simultaneously, the f…

Amorim Cork Composites produces cork and Matceramics produces ceramics. Although not immediately obvious, there are many more factors which bring them together, than those which set them apart. Finding links between one material and the other is both a challenging and rewarding exercise since discovery takes us down pr…

Alma Gémea combines cork and ceramics two noble materials, both of which have a long tradition in Portugal. The use and combination of these materials in an innovative and differentiating manner naturally brings us to the most sophisticated dimension of contemporary home design. Alma Gémea is a forward-looking product…
