Sustainability

Sustainable by nature

Day after day, Corticeira Amorim’s team of thousands of employees works together to fulfil its mission, with rigour and enthusiasm, furthering the company’s long-term vision: to be a sustainable company, ensuring a suitable return on invested capital, promote social equity and environmental protection and uphold key differentiating factors in terms of products and services.

The cycle between start and finish are aligned. Nature: Cork, the Cork Forest and People, all in equilibrium.

Cork is an incredible material. Corticeira Amorim has been a global ambassador for cork for more than 150 years and is the driving force behind the development of its potential applications, which we believe are far from being exhausted.

Our commitment pays tribute to all the preceding generations who have also pursued this mission; to all those who work alongside us in terms of planning, research and innovation; to all those who contribute to the company’s sustained and sustainable growth and, in particular, to all our Employees.

We are especially proud that our stakeholders understand and applaud our valuable contribution to sustainable development, as demonstrated by our most recent stakeholder consultation which enjoyed widespread participation.

Our performance is aligned with the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals and our sustainability strategy contributes to the pursuit of 12 of these Goals. We assume this responsibility with commitment and transparency.
