Ergon BioKork:

Ergon’s BioKork offers the best possible ergonomics for hands and wrists. Cork is naturally antibacterial, hypoallergenic and therefore particularly skin-friendly. It has excellent shock-absorbing properties and is very light due to its low density. The grip body consists of 40 per cent cork. It comes from certified organic cultivation in Portugal and meets strict ecological guidelines. All parts of the grip are manufactured with a consistent focus on ecological sustainability. In the inner sleeve, 40 per cent of the plastic is replaced by grass fibres. In the palm rest, mineral oil has been replaced by renewable vegetable oils. The grip clamp is made from 10 per cent recyclable aluminium. The BioKork grip is the result of the Ergon Initiative GreenLab. A forged aluminium clamping ring ensures quick and twist-proof installation. The individual palm rest angle can be adjusted simply by turning the grip.
