Witte 654865 Maxxpro Cork Slotted and Phillips Screwdriver Set, 5 Piece

Description

Cork comes from the bark of the cork oak tree. These oaks, which are found mainly in Portugal, Spain and North Africa can, if given intensive care, grow for up to 300 years. The removal of the bark does not harm the trees at all and can only be removed for the first time after 20 years of growth and then again every 9 or 10 years thereafter. This removal stimulates a steady regeneration of the bark while at the same time contributing to the ecological balance in the regions where it is cultivated.
