Cork is an excellent material for menu covers, it is hard wearing, washable and stain resistant and has a premium tactile feel. It is important to use more cork because demand has fallen due to the switch to plastic wine bottle corks. The oak trees that provide the cork bark have become unviable economically and are being cut down and replaced by non native fast growing trees like Eucalyptus, these have a negative impact on soil quality, especially in Norther Portugal.

​

Natural cork covers are 1.4mm thick and are a great look for wine and bar menus. Coloured and textured cork is 2.5mm thick giving an ultimate luxury feel, that will compliment a fine dining menu.
