Who we are
At MGD Innovations, we are part of the Cork and Coast Ventures family of companies dedicated to transforming agricultural by-products into renewable specialty materials.
From Portugal to California, our mission is simple: reduce waste, create value, and build a circular economy that benefits both people and planet. Together, we’re shaping a resilient future.
The cork tree represents our approach. Cork is harvested by carefully removing the bark of the cork oak, allowing the tree to continue growing and regenerating new bark for future harvests. The process does not harm the tree and can be repeated many times, making cork one of the most sustainable natural materials in use today. Every fraction of harvested bark is used, ensuring minimal waste.
That regenerative cycle mirrors the circular production systems we scale along the coasts of Portugal . MGD Innovations delivers applied products and processing solutions that fit directly into existing industrial workflows.
