PLYCORK

PlyCork® - innovative ultra-light multilayer in form of a sandwich panel comprising face layers and insulating and stiffening bio-based core made of cork agglomerate. Putting cork between two layers (e.g. aluminium, carbon fibers), we create a composite which is lighter, stronger and stiffer than with a solid material. It has excellent fire, smoke and toxicity characteristics. These features together with natural sound insulation makes it a great solution for wind turbine, ships, kayaks, rail vehicles and car trailers in particular for electric cars and automotive construction. PlyCork® has an extremely high energy absorption ability. Therefore, it is a solution for high impact strikes such as impact prone areas on passenger and rail cars. PlyCork® provides exceptional dampening and dramatically reduced thermal conductivity and does not rot or decay over time. This leads to enormous long-term advantages vs. competing products, that do transfer water and can be susceptible to rotting..
