What is so special about Cork products?

CorkStyle products are manufactured from the bark of Oak trees. The sustainability of its production and the easy recycling of cork's products and by-products are two of its most distinctive aspects. In buying and using cork products, you are contributing to the preservation of a natural and renewable resource.

CorkStyle products are environmentally sustainable.

 In the production process, there is no damage to the trees harvested and there is no waste (the waste is used for stoppers).

No dyeing is involved in the process. Cork offers an alternative for people who would like to stay away from leather. Cork products reflect sustainable business practices and commitment to the environment.
