Korko, founded in 2021 as a collaboration between Hape and Amorim, emerged with the vision of creating sustainable and accessible toys for everyone. Inspired by classic designs and focused on quality and environmental respect, Korko combines tradition with innovation, offering products that not only entertain but also educate children on the importance of a sustainable lifestyle.
The Magic of Cork
Our toys are made from cork, a renewable material sourced from oak forests in Portugal. This material is naturally carbon-neutral and helps capture up to 4.6 million tons of CO2 annually, significantly contributing to the fight against climate change. Additionally, cork is antibacterial, anti-static, soft, and lightweight, making it ideal for young children and ensuring a safe and healthy play environment.
How We Make Our Toys
The cork used in our toys is carefully granulated, molded, and treated to obtain perfect shapes. They are then dyed with water-based colors, creating attractive and low-maintenance products. In addition to sustainable manufacturing, Korko toys are designed to inspire creativity and improve children's dexterity, turning each play session into an opportunity to learn and explore new ideas.
At the Heart of Korko
Get a peek into what makes Korko special to us—and why we think you'll love it too.
Eco-Friendly & Durable
Our toys are crafted from cork, a naturally climate-neutral material. By using only the bark of the cork tree, we ensure no trees are cut down—just regenerating bark. Plus, cork’s incredible durability means our toys are ready for countless adventures, making playtime both eco-friendly and endless.
Soft & Quiet
Compared to regular toys, those made of cork are as soft as a whisper and as gentle as a hug. Cork’s natural insulating properties ensure that even the tallest towers fall quietly, while its anti-bacterial qualities keep playtime hygienic and hassle-free. With rounded corners and a soft touch, they’re perfect for tiny tots from 18 months—safe, serene, and simply delightful.
Creative & Educational
Korko toys ignite imagination and enhance dexterity. The unique cork material not only offers superior non-slip properties but also opens up endless playtime possibilities. Inspiring fun that nurtures creativity and learning in every play session!
