\"\"<\/a>Since yurt kits are typica\"\"<\/a>lly shipped to the building site without a floor, anything other than a local resource requires orchestration. That\u2019s because the floor is ideally finished before the yurt is erected.<\/p>\n

Alterego<\/a><\/span> in Maryland can discuss the feasibility of FSC<\/a><\/span> certified hardwood, cork, bamboo, linoleum, or rubber floor materials for your yurt structure. The company is owned by architects who offer sustainable products with modern designs.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>A similar company is EcoTimber<\/a><\/span> in California. Check out their eco-friendly flooring guide.<\/p>\n

If certification is not your concern, consider Conklins Authentic Antique Barnwood<\/a><\/span>, located in Pennsylvania. The natural look blends well with sustainable lifestyles. And as with antique furniture, the worn appearance can compliment various designs, \u2015 including yurts.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>There\u2019s nothing like the feel of wood. Another option is a form of recycling: recovered river wood. Goodwin Heart Pine Co.<\/a><\/span> in Florida offers a variety of such. They\u2019ve received national recognition that includes the History Channel<\/em> and HGTV<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Cork is a natural, durable and environmentally-conscious product. It has excellent acoustical properties, is easily maintained, and is long-standing comfortable. A good eco-conscious company to inquire with is US Floors LLC<\/a><\/span> in Georgia.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The Smith & Fong Company<\/a><\/span> in San Francisco has been an innovator in the development of bamboo as a building resource since 1989. Consider Plyboo Pure<\/em> FSC-certified with no added urea formaldehyde.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Ecohaus<\/a><\/span> in Washington offers customer service for earth-friendly flooring. Think about Marmoleum<\/em>\u00ae with bacterial resistant and anti-static qualities. That’s a great organic alternative to vinyl sheet flooring.<\/p>\n

Gee, I could go on for days, but the final consideration I recommend in this blog is parquetry<\/a><\/span>. This is a style, rather than a material, but incorporates natural resources beautifully.<\/p>\n

What’s your yurt eco-floor thought? Please comment.<\/p>\n
