Cork – Finally

We have finally seen a bunch of our cork hit the port and is now in stock. That is great news for customers that may have been waiting.

More cork will be hitting over the next couple weeks and that is exciting for everyone! Much of this was the shipments Ryan and I reviewed when we traveled to the EU back in June.

All of this cork is 100% made in Portugal up to the highest standards and with the UNICLIC patented click system. The cheap knock offs that really do not have the environmental story are nothing close to this great stuff. (btw – we have seen a company online selling a Eastern European targeted product as first quality goods made in the EU, but it is not the same stuff at the same price therefore it is not the end of the story. It is thinner product, less dense and has a different set of components (filler, glue, etc…) that make it substandard for the North American market. The company purchased the product from Germany through a grey market connection, but we believe that it is important that only AUTHENTIC premium products get sold as first quality goods.

As always buyer beware!
