We’re all about making a positive impact, starting with something as simple and familiar as wine corks. Our founders, Deniz and Frank, kicked off this adventure in the lively city of Barcelona, Spain.
Our Inspiration
In our generation, it has become increasingly evident that, as a society, we need a new approach to our future. The way we conduct business has evolved over the past centuries, and it continues to do so in the present era. We have always aspired to make a meaningful impact and respond to the genuine needs of the world. It’s clear that modern consumers face challenges in reducing their consumption, despite knowing it would be beneficial. Instead, this generation is consuming more than ever.
Our Reason
To meet the growing demand while promoting sustainability, a different approach is necessary. We recognize the importance of circular solutions for cork, enabling numerous people to enjoy the fantastic attributes that cork offers without any guilt associated with their purchase. By embracing circular practices, we aim to create a positive impact, allowing individuals to benefit from cork’s remarkable qualities while aligning with a more conscientious approach to consumption.
Corkular is driven by a strong belief in the need for a shift towards a more eco-friendly economy. Acknowledging that our planet’s resources are limited, we recognize the importance of giving back to the environment more than we take. In a world where waste is an increasing concern, we view wine corks not as simple by-products but as valuable materials waiting for a second life. By repurposing these corks, we not only give them new meaning and purpose but also actively contribute to the overall well-being of our planet. Corkular is committed to encouraging sustainable practices and creating a positive impact on the world’s environmental health.
Our Goal
Imagine a world where all the cork that is burned and wasted could be saved. The product in front of you would typically end up in a landfill, destined to be burnt. At Corkular, we find this unfortunate because this recyclable product can be repurposed up to 14 times without losing any of its amazing qualities. By re-purposing used wine stoppers, we contribute to a more sustainable future, preventing the unnecessary disposal of this valuable material. Tons of people could enjoy the wonderful attributes of cork, from its natural insulation properties to its versatility in various products. Embracing a circular economy for cork not only conserves resources but also opens the door for countless individuals to experience the beauty and functionality of this remarkable material. Together, we can shape a world where every cork counts and contributes to a more eco-conscious and enjoyable future.
