Why use cork as an underlayment? Cork is a natural thermal and acoustic insulator, which means rooms with cork flooring are naturally warm and quiet. Sound Control – the air naturally found in cork will dramatically dampen sound within the room as well as the room below when used as an underlayment. Thermal Insulation – air is a good thermal insulator and cork is loaded with air. Cork, when used as an underlayment, will make any floor warmer underfoot, preventing cold from migrating up from the sub floor below. Hypoallergenic- the naturally occurring substance Suberin found throughout the cork resists-mold, mildew and bacteria growth and also prohibits the conduction of static electricity.
