Tactile Materials is an international company dedicated to the supply and production of customized metal cladding for architectural endeavors. The Tactile Cork cladding™ is available for interior use.
Tactile lets the natural character of cork take center stage in Tactile Cork Cladding™. Tactile's cork is offered in six variants that allow architects to design a monolithic cork surface or mix the cork patterns and textures. Tactile Cork Cladding™ offers sound absorption and insulating value.
Cork exhibits a strong, natural character that also happens to be a renewable resource due to wishful harvesting and manufacturing practices. Tactile's cork materials feature a variety of textures and patterns that take full advantage of cork at different scales, ranging from virgin cork bark to agglomerated cork granules recycled from different cork manufacturing processes. Tactile's line of Cork products is readily applicable as interior or exterior cladding solutions.
Tactile's cork modules are 600 mm (24”) X 300 mm (12”) and the modules become components of the company's engineered panel system. The cork varies in thickness given the natural variants in the materials (typically between 6 mm (1/4”) and 50 mm (2”) depending on the selected cork. The cork is dry fit on an aluminum panel system with or without metal reveals and an anchorage system. After dry fitting, the cork is assembled in larger panels ready for installation.
