About Raw Cork
Raw cork is the harvested bark of the cork oak tree, primarily used in bottle closures, insulation materials, and decorative applications. Internationally traded cork appears in grades distinguished by thickness, density, and defect levels, with premium grades commanding higher prices. Portugal and Spain dominate global production, accounting for approximately 80% of supply, followed by North Africa and Italy. Buyers should verify the harvest year and storage conditions, as cork quality deteriorates with moisture exposure and improper handling; freshly harvested cork requires proper drying before processing to prevent mold and ensure dimensional stability in finished products.
