ABOUT PORTOCORK
Everyone knows cork – from a stopper in a bottle to the handle on the fishing rods, but why do we use cork instead of plastic or other materials?
THE AMAZING NATURAL PROPERTIES OF CORK:
-
It absorbs ambient sound and reduces noise.
-
It is heat and cold insulator.
-
It is resistant to fire (cork oak can actually survive a forest fire), and it doesn’t release any toxic gases during combustion.
-
It is soft, flexible, and can be comprised and expanded again.
-
It is a 100% natural product that is recyclable and degradable in nature.
-
No trees need to be cut for the extraction of cork!
- It is practically waterproof to liquids and gases.
