Cork protection and care

Do you have natural cork at home? Want it to look great and keep its qualities for years to come? Of course, you do — who wouldn’t! But here’s the question: how do you take proper care of it? “All-purpose” cleaners often do more harm than good. To save you the trouble of testing random solutions, we’ve done the work for you. Our dedicated care products for natural cork are the answer — everything you need, all in one place. From everyday cork cleaning products and protective treatments to lacquers and waxes.

Got questions? You’ll find the answers here!

WHY USE DEDICATED CORK CLEANING PRODUCTS?

They help maintain the look, durability, and natural properties of cork. Depending on your needs, you can choose from everyday home care products, more technical solutions (such as fire retardants for added safety), or specialist treatments — like varnish designed for boat decks.

ARE UNIVERSAL CLEANING PRODUCTS SUITABLE FOR NATURAL CORK?

Not necessarily. Cork has a different structure compared to most surfaces, which means “all-purpose” cleaners don’t always work as intended. Strong, chemical-based products in particular can damage its delicate structure. It’s best not to take the risk and instead use dedicated products designed specifically for cork surfaces. This way, you can be sure your cork stays protected and in excellent condition.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I USE CORK MAINTENANCE PRODUCTS?

There’s no strict rule — it all depends on how heavily the surface is used. Cork is a practical material because it doesn’t attract dust, meaning it doesn’t need cleaning very often.

Each care product also comes with its own guidelines, so it’s always best to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations regarding how frequently to use it.

Cork is warm, pleasant to the touch, and natural — but to make sure it lasts for years, it’s worth taking care of it from the very start. Specially formulated protective products create a delicate layer that shields the surface from everyday wear and tear. This coating repels dirt and prevents stains from seeping into the material. As a result, your cork stays clean, fresh, and well-maintained — and you get to enjoy less work and more time for the things you love.

Not many people know that beeswax works brilliantly for caring for cork. It enhances the depth of the colour and gives the surface a soft, natural sheen. And the best part — refreshing cork with beeswax is simple and effortless, with visible results almost instantly.

Prefer a natural, understated look? Go for a matte finish. Dreaming of a subtle satin sheen that highlights the texture of the material? No problem. And if you prefer an elegant, gentle gloss — there’s an option for that too. Our range includes varnishes with different finishes, allowing you to choose exactly how you want your cork to look. Most importantly, no matter which effect you choose, the material retains its natural qualities — warmth, softness, and unique character.

However, some areas require a little extra care. In such cases, it’s worth reaching for specialist products, such as fire retardants that enhance safety at home or marine-grade varnishes. With these solutions, you can be confident that your cork is thoroughly and effectively protected.
