The challenge
A hotel corridor at 2am is either quiet or it isn't.
Cork flooring for hotels absorbs impact before it travels. Hard floors carry footstep noise between floors. Chairs scrape. Ambient sound stacks. Every material decision on a hospitality project either compounds that problem or solves it.
Certified performance
Material story
A surface with provenance.
Our floors are manufactured by Granorte in Portugal, from FSC-certified cork harvested by stripping the bark from living trees. The tree is not cut down. It regrows. The same tree harvested for a hundred years.
For a hotel with a sustainability position, that story is available in full with the certifications to back it. GREENGUARD Gold. Cork Mark. Microban. Every floor we specify comes with documentation.
Cork does not just look considered. It is considered.
The material
Grown once. Harvested forever.
Cork oak bark is stripped by hand, every nine years, without cutting the tree. The same tree can be harvested for over a hundred years. The bark regrows. The forest remains.
Every square metre of Natrul flooring begins in the forests of Portugal. It arrives in your project with a material story that no synthetic floor can match.

A note from our founder
"The spaces we inhabit influence how we feel. What surrounds us every day deserves the same consideration as every other choice we make about how we live."
