Cork -
a closure with a negative carbon footprint....
Cork is the outer bark of the cork oak. Harvested every nine years without felling or harming the tree, cork is one of nature’s most extraordinary inventions.
An unexpected garden in the city centre of The Hague
The former distillation plant located behind the orginal shop has made place for an "secret" museumgarden. The garden is designed to both be used to host tastings and be a safeheaven for city "wildlife".
Viskrings are made from extruded cellulose made from wood pulp derived from renewable resources. The seals are fully bio-degradable when they are discarded.
Collecting and storing over 1000 liters of rainwater
In old beertanks we collect all the rainwater that poors onto the roof of the botteling plant. The water is used to water the museumgarden in dry periods.
