Using cork or wood fibre to finish surfaces is one of the latest trends in interior design.

The solution has significant advantages: the material is cheaper, it can be changed without the need for repainting, it also works as sound insulation, and in general it is an especially durable raw material, even in damp conditions.

It is also a renewable raw material, since it is made from the bark of the tree, taken only once the tree has matured and without harming the tree itself.

It can be applied to walls, stairs, ceilings and doors, giving a space a completely distinctive character.

Cork and the feel of wood act as decorative elements, adding warmth to a space and emphasising minimalist interiors.
