Chemical composition of cork
• suberin (45%) - main component of the cell walls, responsible for the elasticity of the cork;• lignin (27%) - insulating compound;• polysaccharides (12%) - components of the cell walls that help define the texture of the cork;• tannins (6%) - polyphenolic compounds responsible for the colour;• seroids (5%) - hydropho…

This innovative and revolutionary surfacing system for playgrounds also complies with EN1176 and EN1177 standards and has been designed so that all children can play safely. Corkeen does not contain any toxic or chemical substances, such as heavy metals, EDCs, TVOCs, formaldehyde, or PAHs, which means that it is a comp…
Why should I choose the Corkeen system over other surface solutions?
It is a safe (retained) surface solution with features of great accessibility. It is made from a natural and sustainable raw material (cork). The system has great drainage capacity, free of chemical contamination, offers lower surface temperatures (due to cork’s natural isolating properties), is odorless, lightweig…

The fact that it is installed in situ, as a two-layer system, enables it to preserve its unique attributes. Even after years of use, the Corkeen surface has excellent drainage capacity. It can lower the surface temperature by more than 20% compared to other synthetic solutions, and offers state-of-the-art technical per…
The system incorporates 90% natural cork
The system incorporates 90% natural cork, and is completely free from all types of toxins and chemicals such as heavy metals, EDC, T-VOC, formaldehyde or PAH. Even the smallest cork granules are used as a valuable energy source. Over 60% of our energy needs are met through use of biomass (cork dust), which is a CO2 ne…
