LIGA has launched a new cork recycling scheme in Cardiff

Endeavouring to make a positive impact on the planet, LIGA has launched a new cork recycling scheme in Cardiff, putting used wine corks to good use.

LIGA creates contemporary homeware collections, including placemats and coasters, trays, tableware, kitchen textiles and furniture, perfect as pre-wedding gifts. As well as providing sustainable options for home products, the team at LIGA strongly believes in encouraging people to work together to protect the environment. The new cork recycling initiative is a simple yet powerful way to contribute to a greener future. With 30 stores currently taking part in this recycling scheme, the idea is to take spent corks from wine bottles to your nearest participating LIGA stockist, where the corks will be collected. These will then be recycled into future LIGA products.

Beti Biggs and Whim Wham are stores in Cardiff taking part in the scheme, with owner Jan Williams commenting: “We are delighted to be taking part in the LIGA initiative to recycle corks into products. My customers like the ethos behind LIGA and are particularly drawn to the fact that something beautiful is made from waste.”
