Primer is needed for any facing materials that you will need to paint later. In the same way, a primer is needed for a cork coverings- because without it, the paint will be poorly absorbed, and hold not so long. Of course, such cork products are rarely used, because the cork coverings themselves look very nice, and the coloring needs technical cork material, and even not always. But any changes in the interior design are possible, and in such cases, a primer is needed. It is worth noting that if you buy a cork for walls immediately lacquered, the primer will not be needed, as far as there will simply not be any positive adhesion effect from it.
