In the wild, animals don't rely on artificial surfaces. Their feet, claws, or paws are naturally adapted to gripping rough textures like tree bark, rock formations, and uneven ground. A terrarium should replicate these natural conditions to ensure your pet feels comfortable. Natural cork flats provide an organic, textured surface that allows reptiles to move just as they would in their native habitat. A smooth plastic floor, on the other hand, feels unnatural and could lead to stress.

Have questions? Here are the answers to the most common ones!
WHY IS CORK A GREAT CHOICE FOR REPTILE HABITATS?
Natural cork flats feature a rugged surface, irregular shapes, and organic cracks that mimic the textures reptiles encounter in the wild. This creates a more authentic and engaging habitat for them.
HOW CAN I USE NATURAL CORK FLATS?
Perfect for terrariums, aquariums, and vivariums. Use them as a safe climbing surface, a natural shelter, or a decorative element that enhances the habitat’s aesthetics.
IS NATURAL CORK SAFE FOR REPTILES?
Absolutely! It’s an all-natural, non-toxic material with no synthetic additives or harmful chemicals—completely safe for your pets.
DOES CORK PREVENT MOLD?
Yes! Cork naturally contains suberin, which acts as a barrier against mold and fungal growth, helping to maintain a clean and healthy habitat.
HOW DO I CUT NATURAL CORK FLATS?
A sharp knife or a small handsaw works well. Simply mark where you need to cut and carefully slice through. Since cork is relatively soft, you won’t need heavy-duty tools.
DOES CORK HAVE A SCENT?
Yes, it has a mild, earthy aroma similar to fresh wood—completely natural, with no artificial or unpleasant odors.
DO YOU OFFER DIFFERENT TYPES OF CORK FOR TERRARIUMS?
Yes! In addition to flat cork sheets, we also offer cork tubes and cork branches. If you’re looking for more variety, check out our expanded cork for unique setups.
Let’s face it—plastic decorations never truly capture the natural essence of a terrarium. With its unique texture, organic grain, and irregular shape, cork provides an authentic, nature-inspired touch. Unlike synthetic materials, cork accessories offer a safe and stimulating environment for reptiles. Pure nature—no artificial elements.
#1 A NATURAL ENVIRONMENT FOR YOUR PET
For geckos that enjoy climbing, natural cork is a fantastic option. Its textured surface mimics tree bark and rocky terrain, providing excellent grip and stability. Unlike smooth plastic decorations, cork prevents slipping and offers a more secure footing.
Reptiles have a natural instinct to seek out hiding spots—it makes them feel safe. With cork in their terrarium, your gecko won’t wander anxiously looking for shelter. Instead, they’ll quickly settle into a cozy nook between the cork pieces.
#2 AN ECO-FRIENDLY TERRARIUM CHOICE
Harvesting natural cork doesn’t involve cutting down trees—the bark naturally regenerates, allowing cork oak trees to absorb even more CO₂. The more cork accessories used in terrariums, the better for the environment!
For you, natural cork adds a stylish touch to your pet’s enclosure, but for them, it’s much more than that—a familiar, textured surface that supports their natural behaviors. It closely resembles tree bark, is entirely biodegradable, and environmentally responsible. Choosing cork means creating a habitat that feels like the wild while opting for a sustainable alternative to synthetic décor.
#3 NO PLASTIC, NO CHEMICALS – TOTAL PEACE OF MIND
Reptiles use their tongues to explore their surroundings—it’s how they understand their habitat. If your terrarium contains plastic elements, you can’t always be sure what your pet might ingest. Over time, plastic can shed microplastics and other harmful substances, especially in warm and humid conditions. These materials don’t exist in their natural habitat.
With cork, you can be confident your pet’s space is free from toxins. It’s a 100% natural material with no varnishes, dyes, or chemicals—just pure, pet-safe goodness.
