This distinctive upholstery textile is made with natural cork, one of the most sustainable natural materials. Once the bark of a live cork oak tree is stripped, it will regenerate every nine–ten years. The material is composed from pieces of the bark, which are processed without chemicals and bonded to a nonwoven backing for stability. The textile is then treated with a spray acrylic that provides stain resistance. What results is a high-performance upholstery textile with a luxurious feel comparable to soft leather, but without the maintenance concerns. Hypoallergenic, mildew-resistant, and impermeable to liquids, these textiles are also Class A rated as per ASTM E84, making them suitable for use as a wallcovering.
In addition to being an ideal material for the “green movement,” this quiet pistachio green shade of cork—exclusive to Wolf-Gordon—fits well with nature-inspired colors and environments. And, it’s widely believed that seeing green can give us positive emotions and help us focus.
