Descrição
This paper summarizes the environmental and ecological aspects, sustainability aspects related to the production and utilization of cork products in the field of building.

However, they potentially offer aspects of sustainability and energy efficiency are in the order of the day. Also considered are green building and sustainable materials which are concepts that are increasingly considered by engineers, architects and other technicians and even by consumers. This paper refers to cork materials for building and their relation with all these concepts.
