ABOUT CORK FABRIC
Cork fabric is called nature’s leather, as it has a similar texture and feel to leather. Being durable and strong, it can be used in accessories and bags, just like leather. Cork fabric is an eco friendly alternative to leather or vinyl because it is sustainable, washable, stain resistant, durable, antimicrobial and hypoallergenic. Therefore, it is clean and easy to maintain.
HOW IS CORK FABRIC MADE?
This natural product comes from the bark of Cork Oak trees. It is exactly the same material used to make wine stoppers. This high quality fabric is a natural product made primarily in Spain, Portugal, and France. It is produced directly from the bark of the cork oak tree. Once the cork is harvested from the cork oak it’s stacked on concrete pallets and left to dry for a minimum of six months. After it is fully dried, the cork is boiled and steamed for sterilization, flattening, and elasticity. Heat and pressure are applied to press the cork into blocks. The blocks are later shaved into thin sheets. These thin cork sheets are sealed with a non-toxic sealant and adhered to a fabric support backing. Because of this simple and natural production process, cork fabric retains all of the qualities of “raw” cork!
WHY USE CORK?
As we have seen, cork fabric is produced without harming any animal or plant. No trees are cut down to obtain cork, and removing the bark is actually beneficial to its growth. It is bio-degradable and 100% natural. Cork oaks grow in forests, without the aid of chemical pesticides or fertilizers. These forests are home to a variety of animal and plant species, including the endangered Iberian Lynx. By promoting the growth of cork oaks, we protect this rich forest biodiversity to flourish in their natural environment.
