1 - Pocket Make Up Double Mirror Box Purse Cosmetic Souvenir Cork is a material of vegetal origin of the bark (suber) of cork oaks (Quercus suber), light and with great insulating power. The reason cork has these characteristics is its composition rich in suberin, a lipid (greasy) substance that accumulates in the cell wall. The presence of this substance in a first stage prevents the entry of pathogens and any toxic substances in the cell and at a later stage the passage of nutrients to the cell, causing its death. The first extraction of cork occurs, usually, when the tree reaches between 25 and 30 years, and the extraction takes place in the months of June to August. This cork, sometimes of considerable thickness, is called virgin and is distinguished substantially from the cork of reproduction extracted in the following periods: it is designated by secondary in the second circulation and by amadia in the subsequent runs or extractions. The cork amadia is the one of better quality, being therefore the most valued, and the only one that can be used for the manufacture of stoppers. From this stage, cork is extracted every nine years. Portugal, with an area of 730 thousand hectares of cork oak, is responsible for more than 50% of the world production of cork. Other producers are Spain, southern France, southern Italy, most recently Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia. Portugal exported 846 million euros of cork in 2014. [2] Technological development and the application of new techniques, including management techniques, have led to the vertical integration of some cork processing operations.
