Pelcor’s cork umbrella shelters you from rain sustainably

Remember Vertical Garden that relied heavily on cork bark to deliver a porous and rot resistant planter to urban gardeners. Now, counting on a few more eco attributes of cork, which include impermeability, buoyancy and elasticity, folks at Pelcor

have come up with a stylish umbrella – as Inhabitat

puts it – that promises to offer perfect protection against gentle rain and downpours.

Made from sustainable cork harvested in Portugal, the Pelcor umbrella invites no chopping down of trees. Pretty eco friendly and dependable too, what do you say?
