Frequently Asked Questions

What can recycled cork be used for?
Recycled cork can be repurposed into all kinds of beautiful, sustainable products—including insulation, yoga blocks, coasters, flooring, crafts, fashion accessories, and more. We turn waste into warmth, texture, and tree-funded magic.

Does Recorks accept synthetic corks?
At this time, we only accept natural corks made from cork oak bark. Synthetic or plastic corks can't be reused in our process—but we’re working on solutions for all materials.

How much does it cost to participate?
Nothing! Participation is completely free. We provide collection bags and cover the shipping cost. All you have to do is fill the bag with corks and send it back when it’s full.

Do I need to clean or sort the corks?
Nope! Just drop your used natural corks into the bag—no cleaning or sorting required. We take care of the rest once they reach our facility.

How does tree planting work?
For every shipment of corks returned, we allocate a portion of revenue toward global reforestation efforts. We work with vetted tree-planting partners to ensure your impact is real, trackable, and deeply rooted.
