Cork Flooring In keeping environmental and natural products in the forefront, Jelinek Cork Group was one of the founders of an innovative wine cork collection & recycling initiative. Hundreds of thousands of used wine corks are collected each year. Jelinek recycles these corks and uses them (among other products) in the production of some of the cork flooring, described below. There are numerous reasons which make Jelinek cork flooring the ideal floor covering whether for residential, commercial, or industrial purposes:
Besides being decorative and functional, Jelinek cork flooring over most other floor coverings provides the added benefits of insulating against temperature, airborne sound, and pounding noise. Imagine the perfect floor...fashionable and beautiful to look at, yet easy to care for...quiet, soft and warm to the touch, yet durable enough to handle all kinds of traffic - pets, children, high heels. Cork, as a natural product, warms and enriches any interior. Cork flooring always blends in well with other decors and furniture and is available in a wide range of colors. Jelinek cork coverings are of the finest quality resulting from strictly supervised production and on-going quality control procedures. Additionally, production of Jelinek cork flooring is environmentally friendly. No cork trees are cut down, only the bark is peeled without destroying the tree, and it grows back within nine years, ready to be harvested again. It is important to familiarize yourself about cork flooring. Knowing the facts about cork floors and how to inspect, install, and maintain them will give you years of pleasure and satisfaction. For your better understanding of cork floors we recommend you review the following links: If you have additional questions, concerns, or comments contact us directly.

The wine corks are cut into circular discs about 6mm (1/4") thick and glued on a special paper backing to form interesting and unique mosaic patterns. We are the exclusive rights holder of this new and distinctive cork flooring concept, that uses recycled cork and cork waste to create beautiful ecologically friendly floors. Jelinek Cork Mosaic installation is similar to common mosaic and ceramic tiles using the "glue then grout" method (Slide Show). Jelinek Cork Mosaic floors can remain natural cork color or be stained to any other color. These floors have all the characteristics and benefits of regular cork floors but besides being suitable in most common rooms such as bathrooms, kitchens and entranceways, they are also suitable for saunas, showers, pool surrounds, and other potentially wet areas.
