Since 1990

It all begins with the unmistakable scent of the forest, the patience of nature’s rhythms, and a deep respect for the Sardinian land. The story of Sugherificio Puliga is, first and foremost, the story of a family that chose to tie its fate to one of the finest materials nature has to offer.

It was Peppino who blazed the trail. With expert hands, calloused from hard work, and an eye capable of recognizing the quality of a cork plank at first touch, Peppino founded the company by blending time-honored artisan traditions with tireless dedication. He knew the secrets of the cork oak forests and understood that to produce a top-quality product, one had to wait for the right moment to harvest the bark. From the very beginning, his philosophy has been simple yet rigorous: to do good work, with honesty, and never compromise on quality.

Today, that same passion lives on and looks to the future through Alberto. Having grown up breathing in the dusty, heady scent of cork, Alberto took up his father’s mantle with pride and a sense of responsibility. He has successfully combined the invaluable wealth of experience he inherited from Peppino with a modern vision, introducing advanced technologies, rigorous laboratory controls, and international certifications.

The transition from Peppino to Alberto is not just a generational handoff, but the natural evolution of an ancient craft. Today, Sugherificio Puliga represents the perfect blend of artisanal craftsmanship and modern industrial efficiency.

A family story that continues, day after day, to bring the excellence of Sardinian cork to the world, with the same undiminished passion as on the very first day.
