Virgin cork flat pieces

Synthetic decorations for terrariums might be cheaper, but that’s where their advantages end. They’re mass-produced, lack durability, and contribute to environmental waste. Do you really want your pet to be surrounded by plastic 24/7? It’s better to choose something that mimics its natural habitat. Natural cork for terrarium is nothing like plastic – it’s organic, textured, biodegradable, provides a secure grip for climbing, and won’t irritate the skin.

You probably have a few questions, so we’ve got the answers!

WHAT DOES NATURAL CORK FOR TERRARIUM LOOK LIKE?

These are flat pieces of natural bark with a slightly curved, gutter-like shape. Their surface is rough, featuring natural cracks and an irregular texture – just like bark found in the wild.

WHAT IS NATURAL CORK USED FOR IN A TERRARIUM?

It serves as a hideout, a natural climbing surface, a decorative element, or part of the substrate. It works well in all types of terrariums – both dry and humid.

WILL NATURAL CORK BREAK DOWN IN A HUMID TERRARIUM?

No, it’s resistant to moisture and mould. It’s a long-lasting choice for any terrarium.

DO YOU HAVE CORK TERRARIUM BARK IN DIFFERENT SHAPES?

Yes, we also have cork tubes, branches, and expanded cork, which can be cut to fit a terrarium.

IS CORK BARK FOR REPTILES SAFE FOR TERRARIUM ANIMALS?

Yes, it’s a natural and non-toxic material. Unlike plastic or glued decorations, cork contains no harmful chemicals that could endanger your pet. It’s also resistant to mould and bacteria, making it a hygienic choice for any terrarium.

In nature, animals don’t encounter smooth, artificial surfaces. Their paws are designed to grip bark, rocks, and soil – to navigate uneven terrain. With natural cork in the terrarium, they feel more secure because their instincts kick in naturally. They climb, hide, and explore – just as they would in the wild.

What’s more, unnatural substrates in terrariums can cause micro-injuries to an animal’s skin. Plastic or lacquered surfaces are hard and harsh on their paws. Natural cork is different – gentle yet stable, it doesn’t cause injuries while still providing a secure grip.

In summary – plastic decorations are mass-produced, pollute the environment, and take hundreds of years to decompose. Natural cork, on the other hand, is sustainably harvested without cutting down trees. Your pet interacts with pure nature, not industrial manufacturing. Sounds like a better choice, doesn’t it?
