Recycled Wine Corks

The Jelinek Cork Group of companies supply upwards of 100 million cork stoppers each year. All of these corks are pulled from bottles and then discarded. That is a lot of cork.

In keeping with the company’s concern for the environment and appreciating the limited annual availability of cork raw material from which wine corks are produced, in 2005 Jelinek Cork Group became a major player in North America’s first natural wine cork recycling initiative.

Jelinek Cork Group uses these recycled wine corks as the raw material for the production of some of their cork flooring, creating unique and unusual patterns and designs.

Recycled wine corks are also used in the production of most other cork products including wall tiles, sheets and underlayments, coasters, bulletin boards, and more.

Additionally recycled wine corks are used by consumers for a wide variety of interesting and imaginative projects.
