Richpeoplethings is a social enterprise located in Murcia, Spain, that was born from the idea of suggesting creative alternatives to an otherwise difficult current situation. “Connecting the corks” is an open and flowing movement with the objective of offering clean alternatives, recycling, and reusing precious raw material that is usually wasted. More than 2500 tons of cork stoppers are thrown away every year (just in Spain!). Because of the incredible physical and structural properties that cork has, it is an ideal floaty material for building surfboards. Cork can also withstand the marine environment, so these “corknnected boards” are ecological surfboards.
