What are the unique properties of the Korq mat?
Many of the special qualities of cork derive from the fact that it is actually the bark of the cork oak. Its role as a protective barrier for the tree also means that it is also naturally hypo-allergenic, anti-microbial and anti-fungal. Cork, because of its micro-cellular structure, is very resilient — cushioning blows, resisting dents and absorbing sound. Cork is also beautifully warm underfoot because of its high insulation value. In short, a cork mat can simultaneously reduce sound transmission, make a mat feel warm, be easy to maintain and practicing on a cork mat promotes a healthier living environment!
