Cork, it's cork, saved you a click

Glad to hear this industry is adapting. It’s one of the oldest and most sustainable production systems, but I remember reading it was threatened by the ubiquity of plastic corks in recent years.

I can think of bottle stoppers and shoe soles, where else can cork be used instead of plastic?
