On the other hand, in the case of equipment that visitors can interact with, freely using the swings, it was necessary to prepare the floor for the absorption of high impacts in the event of falls. For this purpose, expanded cork was applied in the impact zones, providing cushioning for falls from heights of 2-3 metres…

Great Shock Absorption

Great shock absorption

Cork is a long-lasting, resilient material whose conditions remain the same over long periods of time. The elastic properties remain long term.

Shock Absorption & Energy Return: Cork helps muscle fatigue and lowers injury risk. Comfort: Natural texture improves athlete experience. Consistent Playability: Reliable performance in all seasons and weather conditions.

Amorim T&D solutions developed for the power industry are based on specific polymer formulations with cork. Cork is a 100 % natural, renewable and recyclable raw material whose characteristics include elasticity, vibration control, chemical resistance, shock absorption, flexibility, impermeability to liquids and th…
