Introducing Green Cork Products: Sustainable Living in the Desert Southwest

Living sustainably in the Desert Southwest just got easier with the launch of a new product from an Arizona-based company. As the population in the Valley continues to grow, Green Cork Products are here to offer a solution for eco-friendly exterior home coating that not only withstands the harsh desert conditions but also reduces costs.

Three years ago, the idea for Green Cork Products was born out of frustration with traditional stucco materials that would crack during construction. The founding partner, Randy Bailey, discovered that cork could be the secret ingredient to creating a sustainable and durable coating for homes and businesses in the region.

Imported from Portugal, cork is a highly sustainable material that is harvested from the bark of trees without harming them. The leftover cork granules, which were previously discarded, are now used to create the Green Cork spray that offers thermal, fire, and sound protection for buildings in the desert.

One of the key benefits of Green Cork Products is its ability to reduce heat transfer into structures, thus lowering the overall heat load in a building. This makes it an ideal choice for those living in the Valley who face scorching temperatures throughout the year.

With affordable upfront costs and easy application over existing surfaces, more Valley homeowners are choosing Green Cork spray as a sustainable alternative to traditional cement-based stucco. As construction products continue to evolve to meet sustainability standards, the Desert Southwest is moving towards a greener future.
