• Roads and bridges: Cork fillerboards are used in the construction of highways, bridges, and other transportation infrastructure to create expansion joints that allow for movement and prevent cracking and damage.
• Airports and ports: Cork fillerboards are used in the construction of runways, taxiways, and other airport infrastructure to create joints that can withstand heavy loads and frequent traffic.
• Industrial buildings: Cork fillerboards are used in the construction of industrial buildings such as factories, warehouses, and distribution centers to create joints that can withstand the movement of heavy machinery and equipment.
• Commercial buildings: Cork fillerboards can be used in the construction of commercial buildings such as shopping malls, hospitals, and schools to create expansion joints that can accommodate the movement of people and equipment.
• Residential buildings: Cork fillerboards can be used in the construction of residential buildings such as apartments and houses to create expansion joints that can accommodate the movement of the building due to changes in temperature and humidity.
• Wet areas and water treatment plants:  CORKJOINT® N.E.C Resin Bonded (Type II) Cork Fillerboard is highly resistant to moisture and is not affected by water or chemicals commonly used in these environments. Water treatment plants are highly corrosive environments where various chemicals, including acids and alkalis, are used to treat water. Being  highly resistant to these chemicals they will not break down or degrade over time, making them an ideal choice for use in water treatment plants.
