MarineCork in the spotlight for the creation of the new Fiat 500 Spiaggina

MarineCork is an extremely versatile material and has been used for the interior of the new Fiat 500 Spiaggina. In 2018, the iconic car that accompanied Italians through the economic revival of the 1960s returned in a new version thanks to the collaboration of Garage Italia and Pininfarina. It was designed with the rear passenger space transformed into a spacious compartment with an integrated shower. The cargo floor covering, as well as the footrests and some curved parts of the interior body, were covered with MarineCork, appreciated by the creators for being cork-based, a circular and sustainable material. Cork is proving to be an optimal and functional material solution for various industrial sectors and is increasingly becoming a protagonist in the world of design. Lapo Elkann, president and creative director of Garage Italia, a company specializing in custom automotive customizations, immediately recognized the professional qualities of the Sace Team and their deep experience and knowledge of the natural and unique material like cork.
