Recolour Desert Glue-Down Tiles
Bare. Specific. Grounded.
Desert is the colour of baked earth, particular to a place and a temperature.
A warm sandy brown applied to natural cork veneer. The tone references dry landscape and carries the quality of something exposed to heat. Cork grain texture reads through the finish, keeping the surface material rather than painted.
Built on natural cork, it delivers thermal retention, acoustic dampening, and a cushioned underfoot response. Warmth that is physical as well as visual.
Dry in tone.
Warm underfoot.
Cork that holds the heat.
Produced in Portugal through Granorte.
Structure holds here.
Foundation carries the room.

- Damp mopping: The WEARPLUS® finish and permanent glue-down installation make this floor fully watertight at the joints. Damp mop freely. Avoid standing water pooling for extended periods.
- Cleaning products: Use pH-neutral floor cleaner. Avoid bleach, solvent-based, or abrasive cleaners these degrade the finish over time.
- Furniture: Use felt pads under all furniture legs. Lift rather than drag when moving furniture.
