About Roll Cork Co.
Roll Cork Co. combines the ideas from two minds; an Engineer (Duncan) and a Podiatrist (Hayley). Together we provide active customers with an innovative way to move, mobilise, massage on the go, using 100% natural cork products.
A minimalistic travel companion for recovery, rehab and injury prevention.
Aesthetic addition to the modern home or work out space.
A light, smooth but firm massage pressure – targeting hard-to-release trigger points and soft
tissue tightness.
A guilt-free purchase that's free from plastic, non-toxic and sustainable.
Ultimately, we want to offer a product out of care for the environment and our bodies. We are so grateful that our customers will be able to access that same level of care to provide for
themselves.

Co-Creator, Hayley
Hayley grew up an Adelaide girl, but spent a lot of her years travelling / living overseas and interstate. Now an ex-athlete, she was a force to be reckoned within the surf lifesaving and professional sprinting scenes.
She is a lover of nature and all things outdoors, living a balanced lifestyle on Tasmania's East Coast.
Professionally, Hayley is a Musculoskeletal Podiatrist – meaning she has a special interest in treating soft tissue injuries of the feet and lower limbs. She works in a multidisciplinary private practice in Hobart three days a week. Prescribing exercise protocols for her patients made her realise the lack of eco-friendly tools being used in healthcare and sports medicine. Immersing herself in nature regularly, Hayley wanted to explore the use of a natural source for products within her clinical practice, and that’s when Roll Cork Co. was born.

Co-Creator, Duncan
Duncan was born and bred in country Victoria, growing up with an appreciation for the land around him. He moved to Adelaide to pursue his Engineering degree and now resides in Tasmania, where he works professionally and manages a lifestyle property on the East Coast.
As an Engineer he works predominantly in hazardous area equipment design, a field which requires the utmost attention to detail and sourcing only the most suitable products. This translates directly into his passion for sourcing durable, sustainable and innovative products for Roll Cork Co. as a brand.
During his time as an elite athlete he developed a ritual of recovery, as it aided his ability to train and perform at the highest levels. Previously using plastic and foam rollers, he switched to using cork knowing its environmental benefits.
Using Roll Cork Co. products continues to be part of Duncan's recovery routine even as a 'weekend warrior'.
