Sustainability

The natural world never ceases to amaze us. A shining example of this is the cork tree, a truly remarkable tribute to the wonder that exists in our world. With its remarkable and continuous self-regeneration properties and incredible longevity, the cultivation and harvesting of cork has proved to be a truly sustainable process that does not compromise the environment that surrounds it.

It is worth noting that cork is the outer layer of the Cork Oak, and is harvested without inflicting any kind of damage or distress to the tree. In fact, the regular multi-year cycle of harvesting only enhances the life and health of the tree. And to top it off, the harvesting process doesn’t just introduce environmental sustainability, it also provides economic benefits to the communities in which it is carried out. So let us all celebrate the truly remarkable cork tree and all that it has to offer!
