WHO FOUNDED CORCAMAR?
"I am Becky the founder of Corcamar and the product developer and designer.
I have been extremely lucky to call Cornwall my home for the majority of my life and have always found solace and calm in swimming and the ocean. You will often see me bobbing around on the south coast or supporting people with water confidence.The story of these products was borne out of the need for a sustainable alternative to the EVA floats and kickboards, that cannot be easily recycled and contribute to the global problem of ocean plastic.As is often the case, the best ideas come from being in the ocean, on this occasion it was the bracing seas of Fistral Beach ,Newquay with a little body surfing that inspired the idea that cork would be an ideal alternative to this challenge. I was reminded that when I was a youngster my fathers garage was full of cork products that had stood the test of time and high seas. So the journey begins to return to what was considered the best material for the job, and now could help us save the environment we live and swim in."
