WHAT EXACTLY ARE CORK CHUNKS?
They’re raw, uneven fragments of real cork – each one unique in size and texture. Usually a few centimeters in diameter, they’re ultra-light and naturally textured. These are the coarsest cork pieces you can get – and that’s what makes them special.
HOW CAN I USE THIS KIND OF CORK?
There are tons of cool and practical ways to use them!
- Construction projects – works great as a natural thermal and sound barrier, especially in lightweight builds.
- Light manufacturing – perfect for sustainable production where flexibility matters.
- Furniture design – use them as eco-friendly fillers or components for green furniture.
- Flooring solutions – enhances grip and improves surface durability.
- Scenery and model crafting – great for simulating rocks, debris, or terrain in model landscapes or stage setups.
- Terrariums – animal-safe decor that fights off moisture and mold.
- DIY & art lovers – super handy for crafts, displays, and home projects.
- Classroom art activities – kids love working with cork!
- Interior accents – ideal as a decorative touch in bowls, vases, or aquariums.
HOW DENSE ARE THESE CORK PIECES?
The 10–20 mm pieces weigh in at around 135–145 kg/m³, while the larger 10–50 mm chunks average 130–140 kg/m³.
HOW ARE THEY DIFFERENT FROM OTHER CORK GRANULES?
The main difference? Size and look. These chunks are much bigger than standard cork granules. The finest grades, sometimes called cork dust, feel more like flour or beach sand.
WHAT MAKES NATURAL CORK SO SPECIAL?
It’s lightweight, bendable, and super durable. It won’t soak up moisture and keeps dust at bay due to its anti-static properties. Plus, it’s totally non-toxic and safe even for little ones and pets. And yes – it’s 100% natural.
IS NATURAL CORK AN ECO-FRIENDLY CHOICE?
Absolutely! It grows back naturally, breaks down completely over time, and there’s no synthetic copy that matches its feel or functionality.
Fun fact: Cork oak trees capture large volumes of CO₂ – more than most broadleaf trees. The more often the bark is stripped, the more carbon the tree stores.
IS THERE A CERTIFICATE FOR THIS CORK?
Yes – these cork granules are certified by Poland’s National Institute of Public Health (PZH), proving they’re totally safe to touch and skin-friendly. No allergic reactions, no irritation, no issues.
Right now, we're the only company in Poland offering certified cork like this.
DOES CORK HANDLE MOISTURE WELL?
Definitely – cork is naturally water-repellent. Its structure contains suberin, a waxy substance that forms a natural barrier against moisture.
CAN YOU PAINT OR CUT THESE CORK PIECES?
Sure can – cork paints are your best bet, but water-based or acrylics will do the job. Stay away from solvent-based products since they can break down the cork.
As for cutting? Just use a sharp hobby knife and you’re good to go.
HOW IS CORK GRANULATE MADE?
It’s produced via mechanical milling, which ensures zero material waste. You get a clean, natural product that’s easy to use and eco-smart.
HOW BIG ARE THE PIECES?
Most chunks are a few centimeters across, but every piece is one-of-a-kind. That’s what makes them feel so organic and real.
Cork doesn’t resemble something off a showroom floor — and that’s exactly its appeal. Each piece of cork is a product of nature: porous, imperfect, and full of raw personality. It’s not mass-produced, and not a single tree was cut down to make it happen.
#1 GENUINE CORK – NOT A FAKE SUBSTITUTE
These cork chunks aren’t cranked out by machines. No two are alike — one might be more rugged, another smoother, or shaped in a completely unique way. That’s part of what makes real cork feel so one-of-a-kind. Every granule is durable, rich in texture, and naturally retains its color.
The cork you’ll find in big box stores tends to be overly rigid and compressed. Authentic cork is an entirely different experience. It’s soft, lightweight, and a little irregular to the touch — a material that feels as natural as it looks.
#2 LIGHTWEIGHT & READY FOR ANY PROJECT
Whether you’re building a hanging display, crafting a model, setting a stage, or working on a hands-on DIY — you know how critical weight can be. Cork pieces are featherlight. They also offer natural insulation, making them a smart choice for both heat and sound control in creative builds.
It’s an eco-friendly, go-to technical material that’s simple to handle, built to last, and doesn’t weigh things down. No heavy tools or complicated gear required — just clean, easy material that works with you, not against you.
#3 TOUGH, FLEXIBLE & SURFACE-SAFE
Cork stands up to most chemicals without breaking a sweat, which makes it ideal for demanding setups. Where synthetic materials might warp or break down, cork holds steady and looks great doing it. Its natural toughness gives it both function and safety advantages.
It’s also gentle on contact — meaning no scratching, no scuffing, and no damage to nearby surfaces. That’s one reason cork is showing up more often in product designs that balance looks with interaction quality.
Its flexibility and resilience make cork an excellent match for countless applications: think padding, paneling, insulation layers, and sports gear. It molds where needed and holds up where it counts.
#4 PLASTIC LOOKALIKES VS. TREE-GROWN CORK
Synthetic granules are basically melted-down plastics — rubber, polymers, and other artificial leftovers. Sure, they can be made to look decent, but they’re still processed waste. Real cork grows on trees — literally. No smog. No factory. No lab coats required.
Those plastic-based bits fall apart over time, shedding particles that slip into the soil and waterways — even when you don’t see them. Cork doesn’t pollute. If it breaks down, it breaks down like a leaf or twig would — clean and safe for both you and the planet.
