Unique Walls with the Comfort of Cork

Wicanders Dekwall is cork wall paneling in the form of individual 12"x 24" glue-down genuine cork tiles protected with a healthy (non-toxic, low-VOC) wax or varnish finish.

Like their flooring line, Dekwall also features Wicanders' unique engineered multilayer structure. Their state-of-the-art Corktech technology combined with the natural properties of cork provides you with all the benefits that distinguish the Wicanders' products such as warmth, noise reduction, sustainability and durability.

Dekwall Benefits:
  • Warm
  • Silent
  • Sustainable
  • Natural Beauty
  • Unique and Stylish Designs

Healthy, Low Maintenance Protective Finish

For increased protection, Dekwall MALTA PLATINUM is prefinished with a non-toxic, low maintenance wax finish which provides the wall covering with a LOW-VOC resistance without harmful additives.

Plus, Dekwall is certified under the strict French indoor air quality program and received an A+. The certification ensures low chemical emissions in products and classifications range from A+ (very low emissions) to C (high emissions).  

Wall paneling created for those who want sustainability AND natural beauty, Dekwall cork walls add warmth and style to any room.  Cork is also a natural sound absorber, reducing noise between and within rooms, creating a quieter, cozy environment.

Corktech Benefits - More Than Just a Beautiful Wall Covering

Wicanders' Cork technology combined with the natural properties of cork, provides the perfect match between beauty, comfort and durability.

3 LAYER CONSTRUCTION

Corktech uses an engineered multilayer structure that consists of a quality core layer of cork and a genuine cork veneer.


1.  The thicker layer, made with agglomerated cork, is used as backing and provides:
  • Superior comfort
  • Noise reduction
  • Warmth
2.  On top of the thicker core is a thin sheet of cork, a decorative veneer that's created by combining unique textures and shapes of natural cork.

3.  For increased protection, the veneer is coated with a protective finish of either wax or varnish:


1) Cork Agglomerate Core
2) Genuine Cork Veneer
3) Protective Finish (Wax or Varnish)

Wicanders 'Corktech' Benefits - Cork is Comfort
A cork floor with the Corktech technology features the following benefits: SILENCE - Cork's natural properties make it an excellent sound absorber. Noise transmission between and within rooms is reduced by up to 53%.OPTIMAL TEMPERATURE - The unique thermal insulation features of cork provide an optimal temperature all year round, assuring a more warm and comfortable environment with energy cost savings. IMPACT RESISTANCE - Cork cells have the ability to bounce back from hard impacts due to its elasticity and compressibility, which makes them durable and increases the life span of the wall tiles.

Why Cork?



SUSTAINABLE WALL COVERING

Cork is an incredibly sustainable product. Cork wall tiles are the result of a circular economy model that turns production waste from the cork stopper industry into valuable and sustainable flooring and wall covering products.

RENEWABLE

Cork is a natural raw material that comes from the bark of the cork oak tree. It's harvested by hand when the tree is 25 years old and every 9 years from then on. No cork trees are damaged or cut during harvesting and the bark regenerates itself after each extraction, making it a near-perfect example of a renewable resource. Cork is also biodegradable and recyclable.

Cork has been used in buildings like the Harvard Law Library and the Library of Congress due to its durability.  It resists cracking & scuff marks and is airtight to gas and liquid, yet still breathable.  When properly maintained, cork products can last 40 years or more!Cork (or more accurately, bark) harvesting is an eco-friendly process that's done without cutting down or destroying a single tree.  And there are strict time limits on the extraction period. During its long lifetime - upwards of 200 years - the tree is continually regenerating bark, which makes the cork forest industry an ideal example of renewable production.Cork is also a natural fire retardant thanks to its unique cell structure and waxy, fire-resistant substance called suberin. It gives a very low conductivity to heat. And it burns without a flame and does not emit toxic gases during combustion.Cork is a great option for allergy sufferers because it's naturally mold and mildew resistant due to the waxy substance inherent in cork.  AND it's anti-microbial.  Cork is a healthy alternative to dust and allergen-collecting carpets.
