AUTHENTIC CORK

ENERGY SOURCE
Cork dust can be used as biomass, serving as a carbon-neutral source of energy in terms of CO2 emissions.

THERMAL,
SOUND,
AND ANTI-VIBRATION
ISOLATION

AUTHENTIC CORK

THERMAL, SOUND, AND ANTI-VIBRATION ISOLATION
The gaseous components contained in cork are enclosed in small, impermeable compartments that are isolated from each other.

LIGHTWEIGHT

AUTHENTIC CORK

LIGHTWEIGHT
Over 50% of cork's volume is air, making it very lightweight.

FIRE RETARDANT

AUTHENTIC CORK

FIRE RETARDANT
With slow combustion, cork is a natural barrier against wildfires. Cork burns without flame and does not emit toxic gases during combustion.

WATERPROOF

BIODEGRADABLE

WATERPROOF
Thanks to suberin and ceroids contained in cell walls, cork is impermeable to liquids and gases.
Its resistance to moisture allows it to age without deteriorating.
