In the 1600s a Benedictine monk named Dom Perignon observed that wooden stoppers wrapped in oil-soaked rags used to seal his bottles of sparkling wine often popped out, and so he replaced them with the conical pieces of cork to seal his bottles of sparkling wine.

Wave Tribe once again releases the World's First Eco Deck Pad. Most deck pads are made out of non environmentally friendly EVA plastic (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate). We first tested recycled EVA pads but they didn't hold up well---they were a bit soft and didn't quite offer the right consistency. After trying several different alternatives we came across CORK and after making and testing a cork + eva composite our research and development team were very pleased with the results and you will be too. Other companies were impressed too and so they copied us, we are flattered.

Cork Oaks live about 150 to 250 years. Virgin cork (or 'male' cork) is the first cork cut from generally 25 year old trees. Another 9 to 12 years is required for the second harvest, and a tree can be harvested twelve times in its lifetime.
