It can live for up to 200 years, even though its bark is harvested around 16 times during its lifetime, typically at nine-year intervals. Importantly, the tree is not harmed during harvesting.<\/p>\n<p>Cork is a 100% natural, recyclable, and reusable material, making it one of the most sustainable and environmentally friendly materials in the world.
