Product Description
Cork is a special material extracted from the bark of the cork oak tree. The bark of this tree is light and soft, so it is called cork. Cork oak is one of the oldest existing tree species in the world and a precious green renewable resource. Characteristics of cork include:
Renewability: Cork trees can be stripped of their bark periodically. Generally, trees over 20 years old can be peeled for the first time, and can be peeled again every 10 to 20 years. This regular stripping does not cause fatal damage to the tree. Making cork a sustainable material.
Distribution: Cork is mainly distributed in countries along the Mediterranean Sea, such as Portugal and Spain. The softwood resources in these areas are of higher quality. In China, cork oak also grows in the Qinling and Qinba Mountains, but the thickness and basic properties of the bark are different from those of the softwoods along the Mediterranean coast.
Physical properties: Cork is composed of honeycomb micropores, the middle is filled with a gas mixture that is almost the same as air, and the outside is mainly covered by cork and lignin. This structure gives cork its unique physical properties, such as good elasticity, toughness and thermal insulation.
Environmental value: Cork is 100% natural raw material and can be 100% recycled. In order to protect this precious resource, many countries have taken measures to recycle cork to enhance local residents' awareness of the importance of cork.
To sum up, cork is not only a material with unique physical properties, but also an environmentally friendly and renewable resource.

Vegan Cork PU Leather Application
1. Can cork be mixed with other materials to make shoes? How to do it?
able. After the fresh bark is harvested, it needs to be sorted and stacked, and then undergo a stabilization period of at least six months. The materials used to make shoes are cut cork sheets. Software technology is used to first make molds on the sheets and arrange them reasonably. Then they enter the process and are sewn together with other upper materials.
2. Is cork a renewable and environmentally friendly material?
Cork is a 100% natural, renewable and environmentally friendly material that can be harvested without felling trees. At the end of each spring, experienced workers begin work. Usually, a cork oak tree will be equipped with two workers to ensure the standardization of the operation and protect the tree from damage.
3. I heard that cork oak trees also exist in China. Can they also make cork shoes?
Cork oak also grows in Shanxi, Shaanxi, Hubei, Yunnan and other places in China. However, due to the influence of climate, soil and other conditions, the thickness of the bark is not enough to make cork shoes and other cork items. The world's cork oaks are basically concentrated in the western Mediterranean coastal areas, of which 34% are located in Portugal.
4. Why do shoes and bags made of cork feel so comfortable?
Because the honeycomb structure of cork itself makes it naturally elastic, the texture of cork products will be very soft.
