Save the Cork!

Recycle your plastic bags, your cans, bottles, and…what? Your corks??

Cork recycling helps to reduce demand placed on cork plantations while maintaining the delicate ecosystem of the Mediterranean forests and helps thousands of producers maintain a sustainable income to support their families.

Recycling corks is so easy, and pretty. That's right, collect your corks in a glass or vase for decoration. It will remind you to save them, and it looks cool!  When the glass is full, it's time to recycle them.
