Corksorb

CorkSorb, part of Amorim Isolamentos, is a Portugese company with the vision to develop solutions for oil spill recovery by applying cork to pollution control procedures. The cork that is used is 100 per cent natural raw material and it is extracted cyclically. By doing so the trees are unharmed. This means that CorkSorb promotes both economic and social sustainability in desertification risk areas since the cork oaks account for the retention of more than 14 million ton of CO2 per year. Lastly and maybe most importantly, CorkSorb’s sustainable absorbent products can deal with any kind of oil spill, solvent or organic compounds as the products are absorbents.
