Excellent Elasticity and Compressibility

It is the only solid which, when compressed on one side, does not increase in volume on another; and as a result of its elasticity it is able to adapt, for example, to variations in temperature and pressure without suffering alterations.

Bringing back a part of nature to the artificial turf system

The use of natural cork or cork combined with other materials as an infill is favoured due to corks’ many positive proprieties, such as: low density (insulation properties with low heat absorption when exposed to sunlight), high elasticity (because of the large share of air that fills its cell structure), high strength…

What are cork’s main features?

Cork benefits from properties such as thermal and acoustic insulation, resistance to fire and high temperatures, elasticity, and compressibility, and on top of all that, it is natural, reusable and recyclable. These properties are correlated with cork’s microscopic structure that considers a hive-like structure filled…

Chemical composition of cork

• suberin (45%) - main component of the cell walls, responsible for the elasticity of the cork;• lignin (27%) - insulating compound;• polysaccharides (12%) - components of the cell walls that help define the texture of the cork;• tannins (6%) - polyphenolic compounds responsible for the colour;• ceroids (5%) - hydropho…
