Cork is known for its versatile properties. The material is elastic and dense. No wonder cork has been used as a bottle stopper since ancient times. But cork is much more than just “cork”. Cork can be used to produce environmentally friendly alternatives for jewelry, clothing, furniture – and yes, even sustainable promotional items. In this post you will find the best promotional cork gifts that can be branded with your logo.

What actually is cork?

The term “cork” refers to a material obtained from the bark of the cork oak. The cork oak is native to southern countries such as Portugal (the world’s largest producer of cork). To extract the natural cork, the cork oak is not felled – it is peeled. The tree does not suffer any damage as a result, but lives on and forms a new bark sustainably and naturally. Cork is therefore a natural and ecological material that grows again.

Cork umbrella

Especially on a gray and rainy day, umbrellas are the best companions. Increasingly, sustainable materials – instead of plastic – are being used to cover umbrellas.

Who does not like to be out in nature, and that with sustainable equipment. Made of ecological cork backpack is a statement and a practical companion everyday life and trips.

In our opinion, a very cool giveaway that not only hiking freaks can use.

Also a promotional classic – in sustainable and cool.

Cork Hot Pads

The hot pads made of natural cork offer perfect protection for tables or work surfaces and give “heat rings” no chance.
