EcoCorker is a custom cork strips manufacturer supplying engineered strips, rolls, and sheets for sealing, flooring expansion joints, woodworking, instrument repair, and packaging. We convert natural, agglomerated, and rubberized cork into precision formats with consistent density and tight thickness tolerance and width control. As a factory in Xi’an, Shaanxi, China, we offer factory direct service, low MOQ, OEM/ODM support, and global logistics.

Selector tips: Use high-density cork strips for enhanced vibration isolation; specify cork strip rolls for long expansion joints; consider cork strip sheets when nesting multiple widths.
Materials & Grades
Cork material originates from cork bark of Quercus suber. We process:
- Natural cork strips: Renewable, biodegradable, and high recovery for eco-first needs.
- Agglomerated cork strips: Granule-controlled granulated cork with predictable density and dimensional stability.
- Rubberized cork: Cork + elastomer binder to create gasket material with oil/fuel resistance, tuned shore hardness, and controlled compression set.
How to choose: Match compressibility, media exposure, operating temperature, and surface roughness; we’ll propose grade and adhesive.
Manufacturing & Customization (OEM/ODM)
We run flexible converting for custom size cork strips:
- Slitting & roll conversion: Consistent widths for flooring and long expansion runs.
- Die cutting / kiss cut: Kits and discrete parts for fast assembly.
- Laser cutting: Profiles, perforations, and interlocks.
- Lamination: PSAs and liners; adhesive backing tuned to application.
Tolerances & QA
- Typical targets: thickness ±0.10–0.30 mm; width ±0.3–0.5 mm (grade-dependent).
- In-process gauges; end-of-line inspection; lot traceability.
- NDA, drawing control, and repeatable setups for recurring orders.

Applications & Industry Use Cases
Gaskets & Sealing
- Rubber cork gasket strips for transformers provide media resistance and recovery; match shore hardness and binder to the fluid.
- Die-cut cork strips for industrial sealing maintain flange conformity; specify precision-cut cork strips with tight tolerances for critical joints.
- Industrial-grade cork strips for sealing applications: pair density with bolt load and surface finish.
Flooring & Expansion Joints
