Cork binder

by

Q: I’m refinishing my son’s room and am wondering about cork. With multiple allergies, I’m concerned about the binder (is it a gluten based binder?) and the finish.

A: I would contact the manufacturer of the product you intend to use. If I may recommend a company, it would be Torly’s or Uniclic.
