This is the first real wood film and parts technology using natural cork. It is eco-friendly not requiring cutting down trees (cork is harvested from the bark of living cork oak trees every ten years). It is more costcompetitive than conventional wood parts because of its simple structure and manufacturing process. Conventional wood parts are a multilayered structure using several layers of wood veneer and require 20 steps of complex molding and machining including milling. Cork wood film is made with lamination equipment and parts are processed via insert injection molding. A 24% weight and a 65% cost savings is achieved compared to wood. Cork’s unique honeycomb-structure offers elasticity, insulation and sound proofing.
