Perpetua g_cork®
g_cork is the essence of our idea of design beyond form. At first glance it might look like a simple stopper but g_cork is not only this: it writes just like Perpetua the pencil. By combining patented production processes and materials, a new object that tells how design and Made in Italy talent can give life to unique intuitions and innovations is born.

Idea
g_cork was born from the encounter between two realities that make innovation related to the recovery of materials, one of the fundamental aspects of their corporate identity: Mixcycling, innovative startup in the creation of sustainable materials from waste fibers, and Alisea. Two companies that contaminate each other, sharing know-how, values and vision with the common goal of recovering industrial waste to create sustainable design objects with high added value.
Design
g_cork is a design stopper.
It combines patents and materials in circular economy: Zantech® (patented by Alisea and made of 100% Upgraded Recycled Graphite) and Sughera (patented by Mixcycling and made of 70% recycled cork). The two materials blend together thanks to an innovative co-molding system NGS (No Glue System). Design by Marta Giardini and Mixcycling.
Sughera, in the 6 different colors, only uses pigments of vegetable origins (FDA certified), suitable for contact with food.
Shape and design
The iconic shape of the g_cork head is designed with a single flat side both to prevent the cork from coming into contact with any impurities and to give it stability when placed on any surface.
