Description
Classic, functional and natural material. Cork is effectively bark, peeled from trees every 8 years. Once harvested, the hardy tree will grow a replacement layer, which can then be harvested in another 9 years time. Cork is a truly sustainable product and acts as a great insulator, making it ideal for placemats and tableware.
This set of 4 natural cork placemats are crafted from renewable cork.
-Diameter: 23cm
-Weight: approx 300 grams

Put simply we all need to get more from what we already have. The world is rapidly running out of natural resources and our days of carefree consumption are numbered. At Circular&Co. we passionately believe that Circular Design can put an end to waste and pollution, it provides a real chance for practical change at a time when the world desperately needs solutions. The circular economy is about extending the life of our resources so we can constantly reuse, and every time we reuse we increase its value, that way it becomes sustainable.
A company’s true legacy is the journey of its products and since 2003 we have been working with our network of industry experts to develop real circular solutions. With growing environmental concerns, it’s time to share our experience with the world. Nothing has a single purpose, and everything has value. As designers, we can play a pivotal role. What we make can have a positive or negative impact. Everyone knows the issues. Our urgent emphasis has to be on solutions.
We promote a circular standard of living, one which encourages customers to consider the journey of their products, from what they were before, to how long they’ll last, and what they’ll become next. Our founder Dan left his job as a Dyson inventor in 2003, moved to a remote part of Cornwall and launched a design company from his garden shed. But Dan had a gut feeling. Not quite a vision, but nearly. He just needed some space to figure things out. Dan called his business ashortwalk. A reminder to stay close to the things that matter.
Being a short walk from the sea means a nurturing place to grow. It’s a daily commitment to slowing down, listening, making connections and taking logical steps. Now we’re bigger and bolder. Our future demands it. Now we’re Circular&Co. but we’ll always be just a short walk from the sea. It’s about making sure we remember, every day, what matters most: our relationships with people and the environment we live in, and our contribution to both. 187 Million single use cups saved from our waste streams later, and this much we know: The linear model doesn’t work; The Future is Circular!
