Key characteristics of cork:
The air inside the cells makes it an excellent insulator, leading to very low thermal conductivity, over a wide range of temperatures.
Over 50% of its volume is air, which makes it very light - it weighs just 0.16 grams pero cubic centimetre and can float.
Because cork does not absorb dust, it helps protect against allergies and does not pose a risk to asthma sufferers.
The natural texture of cork combines softness and flexibility to the touch with a naturally uneven surface. The variable degree of irregularity is given by the type of cork used and the finish chosen.
Thanks to the suberin and ceroids contained in the cell walls, cork is pratically impermeable to liquids and gases. Its resitance to moisture enables it to age wihout deteriorating.
Cork is extremely resistant to abrasion and has a high friction coefficient. Thanks to its honeycomb structure, its resitance to impact or friction is greater than that of other hard surfaces.
