MADE IN BRITAIN

We pride ourselves on British manufacturing. It is the history of high expectation and craftsmanship that makes manufacturing in Britain So favorable. Here at ‘Curve’. we are trying to help reinstate Britain back to being the ‘Workshop of the world’. British craftsmanship built its foundation on sophisticated products. It was how ‘we used our brains’, skills & technology to make the elegance in the products; the reason why British made products were so demanding.

CORK MATERIAL

Touted as nature’s leather but far from the environmentally damaging textile that’s shone as a luxury commodity in the fashion industry for years. Cork in hindsight is revolutionising the fashion industry as its the ultimate Eco-fabric. With it’s texture being compared to Nubuck & Suede, Cork has many advantages over the animal hide variety.

Some of the advantages are:

    • Water resistant – Virtually impermeable, cork’s resistance to moisture allows the material to age without deteriorating.
    • Stain proof & dirt repellent – en-heightened resilience to scratches, this material is perfect for protective products like cases.
    • Hypoallergenic – Cork doesn’t retain dust, thus protecting users with allergies.
    • Insulator – Due to the structure of Cork and the amount of air cavities built in its lattice, Cork has a low conductivity to heat thus making it fire resistant & fame retardant.
    • Durable – One harvested Cork tree can last up to 20 years without any signs of wear.
    • Non toxic – 100% Chemical free. Unlike leather’s highly toxic and pollutive process of tanning, Cork is free of chemicals.

sustainable & Eco-Friendly

With extensive capacity for regeneration, cork is one of natures hidden gifts. Each harvest of cork allows for a smoother texture, which takes place every 9 years. The corks ability to retain carbon dioxide is quite extraordinary. Following stripping (the removal of bark), the 100% natural regeneration process contributes towards 14 million tonnes of CO2 being retained. As a result, greenhouse gas emissions are reduced significantly.  This makes the whole process highly favorable and Eco-friendly.
