Ecork is particularly notable for its high thermal resistance. It acts as an effective barrier against heat transfer between two environments that would naturally tend to equalize their temperatures. Example of thermal conductivity (W/[K m], from highest to lowest): • Aluminum = 237 • Wood = 0.13 • Ecork = 0.075 Ecork therefore offers excellent thermal insulation, which is one of its most important characteristics – but it is not the only one. Due to its many advantages, this coating is increasingly in demand in modern projects
CORK – a natural material obtained from the bark of the cork oak tree (Quercus suber), a species that grows mainly in Southern Europe (Portugal, Spain, Italy) and Northern Africa.
