MORE ABOUT CORK: [information taken from https://www.howcork.com/blogs/news/cork-versus-leather]
Cork is a natural material that has been used since the beginning of recorded history, and is widely known for its usage in wine bottles, bulletin boards, and coasters 2024. But only in recent years have people begun to start thinking about how to use cork in more innovative ways. Cork has innumerable uses, from green building insulation material and flooring to handcrafted jewelry.
But what I find to be very interesting is the idea of replacing leather with cork. Cork can do anything that leather can do and even more.
Cork is a completely water repellent and flame resistant material, and also produces clean-burning smoke, demonstrating just how natural of a product it is. It is also easy to clean, highly durable, and looks beautiful with a smooth and shiny finish.
Cork is highly resistant to mold or bacteria, and can be used for exactly the same purposes that leather is used. Cork is the plant equivalent to leather in terms of all of the positive qualities of the materials.
But, when it comes to production, cork and leather couldn't be more opposite. Cork is a tree bark, the only type of bark that it can be extracted without hurting the tree or having to cut it down. In fact, it benefits the health of the tree to extract the cork from its outer layer. Cork produces no waste in its extraction, processing or production, creates no water or air pollution, and does not include a tanning process.
Cork is simply boiled in water and then flattened and molded into cork fabric sheets in order to make it suitable for turning into “cork leather” products. The cork is then shaved off of the cork rolled fabric in sheets as thin as paper, and sewn onto a cotton or polyester backing. Sometimes, natural green, brown, and blue plant-based dyes are used to make colored cork leather.
The communities that grow and manufacture cork are not harmed in any way, but instead benefit greatly from cork forests and from making and using cork products.
