BENEFITS

Cork is natural, recyclable and biodegradable. No natural or man-made material replicates its properties. In a world of growing environmental awareness, the cork oak survives without the use of chemical herbicides, fertilizers or irrigation. Moreover, it’s the only tree that regenerates after harvesting. Cork retains unique qualities of flexibility elasticity and compressibility. Its extreme resilience, impermeability, lightness and insulating efficiency make it ideal for a wide range of applications

PROPERTIES

Cork is the outer bark of the evergreen cork oak (Quercus suber). This variety of oak grows mainly in Portugal, Spain, Southern ‘ France, Italy, and the Maghreb. It consists of a tight web of up to 40 million cells per cubic centimetre. The cell membranes retain gas, giving cork its capacity to float, insulate and re-expand quickly after compression.

CHARACTERISTICS

Cork is a natural raw material, is 100% recyclable and biodegradable. It is an exceptionally light raw material. Furthermore, no natural or man-made material replicates its properties.

In a world of growing environmental awareness, the cork oak tree survives without the use of chemical herbicides, fertilisers or irrigation. Moreover, it’s the only tree that regenerates after harvesting. It is very flexible and has elastic memory: it can be compressed to around half its thickness, without losing any flexibility, and once decompressed it returns to its original shape. It is also practically impermeable to liquids and gases. It is highly decay resistant, particularly to moisture. It is an excellent thermal, acoustic and vibration insulator.

In construction, it has clear advantages with regard to the quality of buildings, indoor air and comfort, and may be used in the waterproofing of infrastructure, foundations and underlays, in acoustic and thermal insulation and the final coverings for floors, walls, ceilings and roofs.

USES

Cork is used in industries as diverse as floors (floating floor and cork tiles), shoe manufacturing, construction (insulator planks), automotive (gaskets), leisure (fishing rods), upholstery (cork textile) and a wide range of cork finished articles (handbags, wallets, accessories)

HEALTH ADVANTAGES
