Eco Friendly Cork Leather

Ecological and sustainable cork fabrics featuring a wide selection of colors and patterns from the original manufacturer's plant-based vegan leather, animal-free, FSC certified, the fabric lover's choice.

Vegan Leather

Cork fabric is as durable as leather and has the same tactile professional quality. It comes from the bark of the cork oak tree. That's why it is vegetable-based leather and is not harmful to animals.

Cork is a water-impermeable, buoyant material, taken from the outer protective tissue of the bark of woody plants.

Because of its water sparing, easy floating, elastic and fire-retardant properties, cork has many possibilities of application.

 

Cork raw material can be harvested repeatedly with a cycle of 8 to 9 years, and one mature tree can be bark harvested more than ten times. Our more common cork products include cork leather fabric, cork wallpaper, cork bags, cork mats, cork yoga sporting goods, etc.

 

Cork consists of many honeycomb cells, the cell cavity contains resin and tannin compounds, the cells are filled with air, thus cork has very good elasticity, sealing, thermal insulation, sound insulation, electrical insulation and friction resistance.

Isolated cork and has good flame retardancy; 700 degrees acetylene flame burned for three hours does not burn, and no harmful gas release, to reach B2 level fire rating, with fire retardant characteristics.

 

01. Elasticity, good resilience

When subjected to external pressure, the gap of the cells within the cork will shrink and the internal pressure will rise; when the pressure is lost, the pressure within the cells and the gap of the cells will restore the cells to their original state, which is the elasticity of the cork that we feel.

 

02. Strong stability, not easy to crack and warp

Cork is stable and less affected by the environment, with a heat-resistant range of -60°C to +80°C.

In the case of drastic changes in temperature and humidity, not cracked and not warped, ideal for use with floor heating.

 

03. with anti-slip, high friction

Cork with anti-slip coefficient up to grade 6 (up to grade 7), suitable as flooring material for children's room and elderly room.

 

04. Sound insulation and vibration resistance, excellent material

Each cubic centimeter of cork contains nearly 40 million cells, which can effectively absorb noise, sound insulation and anti-vibration, so cork has a wide range of applications, such as equipment shock absorption, thermal insulation layer of refrigeration equipment, building exterior roof insulation panels, indoor sound insulation and sound-absorbing decorative panels, etc.

 

05. Moisture and mold resistance, outstanding performance

The presence of cork resin and lignin in the cork, so the liquid is completely impermeable, and the gas is basically impermeable.

 

06. Resistant to decay and chemical attack

In addition to corrosion resistance to concentrated nitric acid, concentrated sulfuric acid, chlorine, iodine, etc., cork is not chemically resistant to water, grease, gasoline, organic acids, salts, esters, etc.
