Go Green

The bark of the Cork-Oak Tree is naturally hypo-allergenic, anti-fungal and a 100% renewable resource. The bark is harvested by peeling it away from the trunk and branches every 9-12 years and does not necessitate the felling of the tree. Unlike other types of trees, the Cork-Oak survives and will grow its bark again within a decade. The trees can live to 200 years or more meaning the cork can be harvested many times over, making it an ideal material for the manufacture of cork floors (using left over material from the production of wine corks or recycled wine corks). Choose a cork floor secure in the knowledge that your purchase has not been at the expense of the world's rainforests.
