Passionate about renewable, environmentally friendly cork! Lucky to be part of our family business that was founded in the mid-1800s - Jelinek Cork Group. Working from beautiful and creative Savannah, GA USA.

Did you know that cork is completely renewable? It is the bark of cork trees that are primarily grown in the Mediterranean region. The trees are not harmed or cut down during harvest. The cork bark begins to regrow immediately. The trees can live 250 years, all the time filtering carbon dioxide, generating oxygen, and creating an incredibly diverse habitat for plants and animals - not to mention producing a new harvest of cork approximately every nine years.

By using cork products, you're supporting the cork forest. You're helping make the world a better place.
