Collection: Korko
Cork
From nature to the heart of the playroom.
Our toys are produced using cork from a Portuguese oak forest. Up to 4.6 million tonnes of CO2 are captured in this forest under the Portuguese sun every year. Unlike with wooden toys, the trees are not chopped down. In order to obtain our cork, only the tree bark is removed and it can be harvested again after approx. 9 years as part of our careful hand-crafted process. This is because cork is a rapidly renewable raw material. Regular removal of the bark also helps to absorb further CO2 from the atmosphere. This is how we are able to ensure our toys are climate-neutral and made in Europe โ for the sake of the environment and all future generations to come!
