Cork underlayment is used in flooring installations for several important reasons:

Sound Insulation: Cork is excellent at absorbing sound, making it ideal for reducing both impact noise (like footsteps) and airborne noise (like voices or TV) between floors in multi-level buildings.

Thermal Insulation: It provides a layer of thermal insulation, helping maintain consistent room temperature and improving energy efficiency.

Moisture Resistance: Cork has natural resistance to moisture and mold, which makes it suitable as an underlayment layer, especially in areas prone to minor moisture exposure.

Comfort Underfoot: It adds cushioning under hard surface floors like laminate or engineered hardwood, making floors feel softer and more comfortable to walk on.

Subfloor Imperfection Buffer: Cork can help smooth out minor imperfections or unevenness in the subfloor, contributing to a more stable and long-lasting flooring installation.

Eco-Friendly: Cork is a renewable, biodegradable material harvested from cork oak trees, making it a sustainable option.
