Cross-section through hempcrete timber frame construction, revealing the layers from left to right: lime render, hempcrete, formaldehyde-free engineered wood, structural timber frame with grass insulation, hempcrete, and cork expanded insulation as the interior finish. Altogether, these materials provide superior thermal and acoustic insulation, while promoting healthy indoor environment.

Biocomposite cork plastic composite (CPC) injection moulded from cork granules mixed with thermoplastic polyolefin elastomer (TPO). This type of composite is good for its tactile, energy absorbing and anti-sliding properties. It is used in handles, sports products and shoe soles, for example. Likewise, cork is used in wood plastic composite (WPC), in combination with polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) for outdoor and furniture applications.
