How to Protect a Cork Floor from Wear?

Cork floors are a sustainable and eco-friendly choice, offering a warm and comfortable feel. However, with daily use, they can be prone to wear, drying out, and discoloration. To extend the lifespan of a cork floor, it is essential to treat it regularly with a suitable oil that penetrates deeply into the material and forms a protective layer. Standard cleaning products are often insufficient, as they can strip the cork of its natural oils, damaging its structure. A water-based oil specifically designed for cork floors provides the best protection, as it nourishes the surface without blocking the cork’s breathable properties. This prevents drying out, makes maintenance easier, and preserves the floor’s natural look.

Dr. Schutz H2Oil deeply penetrates cork and provides long-lasting protection without altering its natural appearance.

Dr. Schutz H2Oil is a water-based maintenance oil specially developed to protect and refresh cork floors. The formula contains natural linseed oil components and protective additives that deeply nourish the material while creating a breathable, durable layer. This ensures that the cork floor remains protected against wear, dirt, and moisture while maintaining its natural appearance. The oil is easy to apply with a lint-free mop or polish applicator and absorbs evenly into the floor without leaving sticky residues. After a drying time of at least 12 hours, the floor is fully protected and ready for use again. Regular use of Dr. Schutz H2Oil prevents drying out and extends the lifespan of cork floors, keeping them beautiful and functional for longer.
