Sustainability meets functionality

This yoga block is made from granulated cork, which comes from the remnants of cork production – an example of true circular economy. The bark of the Portuguese cork oak is peeled in harmony with nature, without damaging the tree. The harvest cycle is around nine years and is completely regenerative.

Cork is naturally:

• non-slip and grippy

• slightly elastic yet stable

• heat-retaining and pleasant to the touch

• hypoallergenic, antistatic, and durable

Thanks to its natural grain and color, each block is unique – shapely, functional, and completely individual.

Interesting facts about the cork tree
The cork oak grows in Portugal and other countries bordering the western edge of the Mediterranean basin. Cork extraction is 100% safe for the tree. The tree is not felled, only the bark is removed. Before the first harvest, the cork tree must be at least 25 years old. The interval until the next cork harvest should be 9 years. Fortunately, a cork tree lives about 180 - 200 years, so it can be harvested 15 - 20 times.
