Cork Trees are nationally protected with strict rules on the cork harvesting process. Following 25 years of initial growth, the outer layer of bark can be harvested every 9 years during its 200+ year life cycle. Harvesting the tree's outer layer of bark is not detrimental to the growth of the tree as all of its essential core elements are preserved. In fact, it allows the tree to regulate it's temperature more efficiently and absorb 5 times more carbon dioxide. Over a 9 year period, the cork tree will regenerate a stronger layer of bark, thus making the harvesting of cork a 100% sustainable process.
