Questions? Here are the answers!

IS ROLL OF CORK SUITABLE FOR DIY PROJECTS?

Yes. Cork roll is a versatile material, making it suitable for DIY projects and much more. It can be used to create decorations, models and craft elements, as well as to cover furniture, shelves or walls.

Cork rolls are also used in manufacturing and technical projects, for example to make separators, gaskets, protective layers or components that help protect surfaces from scratches.

IS ROLL OF CORK SUITABLE FOR CREATING A PIN BOARD?

Yes. Cork roll works very well as a surface for pinning notes, photos or plans. It is best to choose a thickness between 5 and 10 mm. A thinner layer may not hold drawing pins securely enough, especially with frequent use. The cork itself should be bonded to a stable, even backing, such as fibreboard.

WHERE DOES NATURAL CORK COME FROM?

Cork comes from the bark of the cork oak tree, which grows mainly in countries around the Mediterranean, including Portugal and Spain. The tree is not cut down during harvesting. Only the outer layer of bark is removed, and this grows back over time.

This is why cork has an irregular texture and natural variations in colour. These are not flaws in the material, but a result of its natural origin.


A 130 cm wide cork roll is useful when standard sheets or narrower rolls do not match the dimensions of your project. The width allows you to cover a larger area with fewer pieces. This reduces the number of joins and gives the finished surface a more uniform appearance. It is a practical choice for covering walls, furniture, worktops and made-to-measure elements, among other applications.


Cork roll can serve a decorative, protective or technical purpose. You can use it for finishing surfaces, creating decorations and DIY projects, as well as for producing separators, pads or gaskets.


A range of thicknesses is available, and each one is suited to slightly different tasks. Thinner rolls are mainly suitable for covering and decorating surfaces or protecting them against light scuffs. Thicker options create a more substantial protective layer, while cork between 5 and 10 mm thick can be used to make a cork noticeboard. If insulation is your main priority, a very thin roll will not be the best choice – in this case, you will need a greater thickness or cork specifically designed for insulation.
