Cork, born for love

CAROLIM Cork

Cork as a Material

Cork, sourced from acorn, is lightweight, flexible, and pressure-resistant. It's sustainable, regenerating every 9-12 years. With thermal, soundproof, and shockproof properties, cork is waterproof, mold-resistant, and flame-retardant. It's used in wine stoppers, flooring, insulation, and more, making it an eco-friendly choice.

Harvesting cork does not require cutting down the tree; the process is much like shearing a sheep.
