Key Benefits
Premium cork bark for terrariums & isopod cultures.
Strong yet lightweight (thanks to an organic honeycomb structure) cork bark is an amazing material for constructing naturalistic hardscape arrangements.
The water resistant properties of this cork bark makes it hold up super well in moist tropical conditions. This isn't a material you need to worry about replacing.
Cork bark is harvested from cork trees in a regenerate process (delightfully called "uncorking") so that it can completely regrow the bark. No harm done!
This cork bark has been heat treated to make it safe for terrarium animals, pets, and ecosystems.
Isopods love cork bark. Forever a popular hiding spot.
