agglomerated cork
Explanation:
IMO

Agglomerated cork stoppers are entirely made of granulated cork, derived from by-products that are a result of the manufacture of natural cork closures. Agglomerated cork stoppers can be manufactured by individual moulding or by extrusion. In both methods, approved food contact glues are used to bind the cork granules together.
