What is a designer cork board?

It’s a cork board that is so well designed - we had to call it that. From the gorgeous premium hardwood frames to the perfectly coordinating fabrics of our bulletin boards, every detail has been throughly thought out. We even sourced our pushpins (included with every cork board purchase) from a American company that manufactures them out of wood. Why? - because they just have that unique quality and warmth that embodies everything that we believe in.

Are your cork boards really made in America?

We wouldn’t have it any other way. We have been designing and manufacturing all our products right here in New England for over 15 years. The only way to make sure that we are creating the highest quality cork boards is to make each one - by hand - right here in America. We are so confident in our cork boards that we stand behind them with this guarantee: if you are not 100% satisfied with the quality of your cork board, you can return it for a full refund, credit or exchange.

What is the difference between a corkboard and a bulletin board?

The difference between a cork board and a bulletin board is the surface of the board itself. Our cork boards use the highest quality self-healing cork available, while our bulletin boards are made with extra durable upholstery fabric that will withstand a lifetime of use - we guarantee it! If you would like to see samples of our bulletin board fabrics, just let us know and we can drop some in the mail to you at no charge.

Are your cork boards easy to hang?
So easy. We only use Beehive Hangers on all our cork boards and bulletin boards. Beehive Hangers provide fast, simple, accurate, and secure installation every time without the hassle of repositioning nails in the wall. Beehive Hangers provide a innovative design that allows you to hang your cork board evenly without measuring or using a level. They also provide a secure attachment to the wall so the cork board does not move when you are placing items on the board. All cork boards can be hung vertically or horizontally.

Do you make custom sized cork boards?
You bet. If you have a unique space that needs a special size cork board, we can make it! Just email us the size & frame style you need and we can give you a custom quote. Please note that the maximum size we can ship is 60" x 34". Custom sizes may incur additional shipping charges.

Where does cork come from?
Cork is harvested from the bark of the Cork Oak tree, primarily found in southwestern Europe, with Portugal accounting for around 50% of the world cork harvest. The tree forms a thick bark and can be harvested every 9 to 12 years to produce cork. The harvesting of cork does not harm the tree, as only the bark is extracted, and a new layer of cork grows, making cork one of the few naturally renewable resources.
