Idea

g_cork was born from the encounter between two realities that make innovation related to the recovery of materials, one of the fundamental aspects of their corporate identity: Mixcycling, innovative startup in the creation of sustainable materials from waste fibers, and Alisea. Two companies that contaminate each other, sharing know-how, values and vision with the common goal of recovering industrial waste to create sustainable design objects with high added value.

Design

g_cork is a design stopper. It combines patents and materials in circular economy: Zantech (patented by Alisea and made of 100% Upgraded Recycled Graphite) and Sughera (patented by Mixcycling and made of 70% recycled cork). The two materials blend together thanks to an innovative co-molding system NGS (No Glue System). Design by Marta Giardini and Mixcycling.

Sughera, in the 6 different colors, only uses pigments of vegetable origins (FDA certified), suitable for contact with food.

Shape and design

The iconic shape of the g_cork head is designed with a single flat side both to prevent the cork from coming into contact with any impurities and to give it stability when placed on any surface.
