A new organisational model for a more efficient and integrated future
Amorim Cork Solutions will be responsible for the integration of industrial, commercial and technological capacities, resulting in a more robust, agile and flexible structure.
'The new organisation is far more than the sum of its parts', says João Pedro Azevedo, Amorim Cork Solutions' CEO. 'Having a single unit allows us to tear down organisational borders and fully leverage all the industrial, commercial and materials knowledge synergies, as well as consolidate operation and support functions.'
This reorganisation also includes an adjustment to the distribution model, by optimising or closing down own distributing companies abroad. This measure reinforces the commitment to strategically allocate resources to meet the demands of the global market.
At Amorim Cork Solutions, we develop solutions with high-performance cork composites, combining innovation with sustainability.
We reuse cork, a 100% natural, renewable and recyclable raw material, to develop high-performance solutions for a wide range of industries, including aerospace, maritime, mobility, sealing, energy, construction, flooring, sports surfaces, playgrounds, toys, home, office and leisure. Every product we create is a strategic response to market needs and a commitment to sustainability.
At Amorim Cork Solutions, each innovation reinforces the promise of a future where nature and technology coexist in perfect harmony.
Synergies that drive innovation
One of the main driving forces behind this integration is the sharing of knowledge and technologies across units. According to João Pedro Azevedo, 'We have extensive in-house expertise, enabling us to transfer know-how from one application or segment to another. The aerospace sector, for instance, served as the foundation for high-performance solutions applied to electric mobility. This ability to transfer technologies and harness synergies is what makes Amorim Cork Solutions unique.'
He adds: 'There is no other company in the world with such vast and in-depth knowledge, while also having such diverse and specialised expertise, in how cork combines with multi-materials, how cork works with so many technologies, across so many applications and sectors. That is unique. And it is the solution.'
Sustainability: at the heart of every solution
Sustainability remains the guiding principle behind all of Corticeira Amorim's initiatives. Amorim Cork Solutions aims to enhance cork – a 100% natural, recyclable and renewable raw material – in applications that maximise its value. From materials for the aerospace and energy industries to innovative solutions for construction, leisure and design, each product is designed to balance performance with environmental friendliness.
A future of sustainable growth
By investing in an integrated organisation and leveraging synergies, Amorim Cork Solutions promises to take cork to new heights of innovation and global relevance. 'We want the world's biggest companies to think of cork and Amorim Cork Solutions when looking for sustainable, high-performance materials', João Pedro Azevedo concludes.
Corticeira Amorim thus reaffirms its commitment to uniting nature and technology in perfect harmony, creating solutions that not only meet the demands of the present, but also preserve the planet for future generations.
