Recycling Cork Stoppers: A Step Towards a Sustainable World.

Recycling cork stoppers is crucial for sustainability. It prevents CO2 from being released into the atmosphere and extends the cork's CO2 retention capacity. Every ton of cork stoppers retains around 1.07 tons of CO2.

By recycling used cork stoppers, you help reuse the raw material and lower the production costs of related products. ♻️
