The lively, adventurous circles used in Habitus recycled cork mosaic tiles bring a whole new dimension to cork flooring. Using remnants from the wine cork stopper industry, the company recycles the most attractive chips and hand-mounts them onto paper mesh sheets. Naturally moisture repellent, this unique product is suitable for use in showers, bathrooms and kitchens.

 

 

And installation couldn’t be easier: Habitus recycled cork mosaic tiles are installed just like any typical ceramic, glass, or stone mosaic product. Simply adhere with a thin-set adhesive and grout.

Grout color selection plays a dramatic role in the final design. Monochromatic choices provide a harmonious appearance, in comparison to high-contrast designs with dynamic impact. Tiles are available in two chip sizes; 1″ diameter chip on a 12″ x 24″ sheet or 1-3/8″ diameter chip on a 24″ x 24″ sheet. Prices start at $12 per sq.ft., and the product is  available in stock, with  delivery averaging 3-5 days. Habitus, Inc.
