Cork comes from nature!

Cork is a natural product. The ancient Romans used it as the first wine stoppers! Cork comes from the outer bark of the Oak Tree, Querqus Suber, which grows in large quantities in Mediterranic area of Portugal and Spain mostly, and Algeria, Morocco and Sardinia.
Every 9 or 10 years the bark is harvested in slabs, but this process would not damage the tree, which will survive for more than 200 years.
Also the Cork tree forests are protected by Portuguese laws, since 1320!
Cork properties comes from a cellular structure of hollow, 14 sided cells with strong walls.
Cork with his inherent substance, Suberin, is protected against insects, termites and microbial activity. Cork is also, fire resistant and inhibitor, stopping the spread of flames, without toxic gases on combustion.
