Fitting guide

  1. Measure the stair width and cut the nosing to length with a fine-tooth hacksaw or mitre saw.
  2. Dry-fit the profile on the step edge and check it sits flush.
  3. Mark the fixing holes, then drill and insert the plugs supplied.
  4. Screw the nosing down evenly, working from the centre outwards.
  5. Wipe clean. Avoid abrasive cleaners on the anodised finish.

Tip: for carpet or vinyl, fit the nosing after the floor covering is laid.

Problems This Cork Underlay Helps Solve

Noise from Footsteps

Hard flooring can transmit impact noise from footsteps and everyday movement. The cork layer helps reduce this sound transmission beneath compatible floors.

Cold-Feeling Floors

An additional cork layer beneath the finished flooring provides extra thermal insulation and can help improve overall floor comfort.

Hard Flooring Without an Underlay Layer

The 2mm cork provides a supportive intermediate layer between the subfloor and finished flooring.

Customers Looking for a Natural Material

Some customers prefer to avoid synthetic foam where possible. Natural cork provides an alternative underlay material for compatible flooring systems.

Large Rolls Being Difficult to Plan

The roll provides a clearly defined 10m² coverage, making it easier to calculate how many rolls are required for a room.

Benefits of 2mm Cork Underlay

Natural Material

The underlay is made from 100% natural cork, making it suitable for customers looking for a more natural flooring component.

Acoustic Support

Cork naturally helps absorb impact and transmitted sound, improving acoustic comfort beneath compatible flooring.

Added Thermal Insulation

The cork layer helps reduce direct contact between the finished floor and colder subfloor beneath.

Easy to Work With

The flexible material can be rolled out and cut using a suitable utility knife or scissors.

Consistent 10m² Coverage

A 1m-wide, 10m-long roll provides a simple coverage format for planning flooring projects.

Applications

Suitable for use beneath compatible:

  • Laminate flooring
  • Wooden flooring
  • Vinyl flooring
  • Carpet
  • Floating flooring systems
  • Bedrooms
  • Living rooms
  • Hallways
  • Home offices
  • Residential flooring projects
  • Commercial interior flooring
  • DIY installations
  • Professional flooring projects

Always confirm that the finished flooring system allows the use of a separate cork underlay.

Installation Guide

  1. Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry and level.

  2. Remove dust, debris and anything that could create an uneven surface.

  3. Roll out the cork underlay across the floor.

  4. Position the material neatly and trim it to size using a utility knife or suitable scissors.

  5. Keep the underlay smooth and avoid unnecessary overlaps or folds.

  6. Lay the compatible finished flooring directly over the cork according to the flooring manufacturer's installation instructions.

How Much Cork Underlay Do I Need?

Each roll covers approximately:

1m x 10m = 10m²

Measure the room using:

Length × Width = Floor Area in m²

For example:

3m x 3m = 9m²

One 10m² roll would provide enough nominal coverage for a 9m² room, although customers should allow for cutting and installation waste where necessary.

Before Ordering

Check:

  • Total floor area
  • Flooring type
  • Whether the flooring is compatible with separate cork underlay
  • Whether 2mm thickness is suitable for the flooring system
  • Whether additional rolls are required for wastage
  • Subfloor condition before installation

No specific dB acoustic rating or thermal resistance value is provided for this product.

If your project requires a certified acoustic performance, building-standard sound rating or specific thermal value, check the required specification before ordering.

What Does the Customer Get from This Product?

The customer gets a 10m² natural cork underlay system that combines acoustic support, additional insulation and floor cushioning in one 2mm layer.

Unlike a simple packing material, cork provides useful flooring benefits while remaining easy to cut and install.

The fixed 1m x 10m roll size also makes project planning straightforward, while compatibility with several flooring types gives customers flexibility across different rooms and renovation projects.

Why Choose This 2mm Cork Underlay?

This product is a practical choice for customers who want a natural underlay for improved floor comfort, acoustic performance and additional insulation.

Its 2mm thickness keeps the layer relatively slim, while the 10m² roll format makes it easy to plan for individual rooms or larger installations using multiple rolls.
