The Suber project
- - Our philosophy
    - Design cannot neglect the object’s function and the material of which it is made.
  - The project
    - New aesthetics accessible to all those who want to change the patterns of production and consumption.
  - People
    - People, their thoughts and their actions can contribute to change the World.
  - Amorim Cork Italia
    - Amorim Cork Italia is the Italian branch of the Amorim Group and it is a leading company in the production and sale of high-quality corks.
- Suber is an aesthetic experimentation project that arises from two crucial concepts: the first is that our wellbeing depends on that of the planet and the second is that raw materials will be increasingly precious.
The ethical revolution
- - A shared responsibility
    - The Suber Project ideally interprets the modern concept of circular economy.
  - Made in Italy objects that look to the future
    - Suber is entirely Made in Italy, from the design to the finished product and ready for sale.
  - The non-profit organizations of the Ethical Project
    - Respect the environment, help those in need and reduce Co2 emissions.
  - The origin
    - Suber: an evolved project that originates in the DNA of Amorim Cork Italia company.
  - The role of the wineries
    - Cork begins its journey from these places of excellence and returns there in the form of special interior design objects.
  - Cork
    - Cork brings its distinctive characteristics to the world of design; its color, its perfume, its perception to the soft and porous touch, for interior design objects with strong sensory expressiveness.
The aesthetics of the future
- - New aesthetics
    - An era of design where form does not derive only from function, but from matter itself.
  - The Core
    - A totally natural, soft and light material capable of acquiring sinuous shapes and rigorous geometries. CORE is a very versatile material and, in the formal dialogue with other natural materials such as steel and glass, it finds its maximum aesthetic expression.
  - Working
    - The processing of the CORE requires specific technology and refined manual skills.
- Natural, ecological and versatile, cork is starting to be present in the world of design; its ductile and multifaceted qualities open new frontiers in the imagination of new shapes and lines. “Aesthetics is the mother of ethics.” JOSEPH BRODSKY

The aesthetics of the future

Working

The future is craftsmanship

The future of the global economy passes through a technical osmosis between craftsmanship and industrial skills that blend together to achieve a more sustainable production.

Recycling begins to become a necessity to cope with a planetary environmental emergency and highlights the central role played by the search for new innovative technologies and the ability to process new materials.
In recent years, studies aimed at developing new technologies have intensified not only for profits, but also for the potentialities of the sector; indeed, waste currently represents one of the greatest opportunities for the sustainable growth of the global economy in need of primary resources.
Waste is an enormous reserve of resources and their processing technology becomes fundamental; for many years, craftsmanship and manual activities have been considered as a legacy of the past, but it is clear that only technological research can design the future.

The processing of the CORE requires specific technology and refined manual skill.
The non-solid CORE is cast inside molds that determine the basic shape of the objects in the Suber Collection. After 20 days in which the material slowly solidifies, the mold is opened and the shape is worked and finished manually and then assembled with the other materials.
The result is a product that is smooth and pleasant to the touch as well as light and ductile as much as cork is – the original material from which it is made.
The assembly and packaging of each object in the Suber Collection have been designed to minimize the use of other raw materials (i.e. steel, glass and cardboard) which are also completely recyclable.
