Why CoreTec
Practical Advantages Specifiers Track
100% Waterproof Build
Surface spills cannot drive into the core, protecting subfloors in kitchens and laundry rooms.
Cork Comfort Layer
Integrated cork underlayment softens footfall and helps manage impact noise between floors.
Dimensional Stability
Rigid cores resist cupping when HVAC cycles swing room temperatures across seasons.
Low VOC Pathways
FloorScore and GREENGUARD Gold options support indoor air quality submittals.
Abrasion-Ready Wear Layers
Mil thickness options map cleanly to residential bedrooms versus cart-traffic corridors.
Click-Lock Speed
Floating install reduces thin-set cure time so turnover schedules stay predictable.
