- environmentally friendly - made out of natural products, they favour energy saving (insulating capacity, heat retention);
- healthy - surface finishes do not retain dirt, therefore they do not favour the proliferation of germs and fungi;
- sound resistant - they reduce the transmission of sound between and inside compartments (impact noise and step noise, respectively);
- they provide natural thermal insulation, as well as a high capacity to retain thermal energy, thanks to the incorporation of cork;
- comfortable - the cork incorporated into them deadens impact and relieves tension;
- durable and easy to maintain but low impact on the environment;
- re-usable (in tongue and groove system) or recyclable.
