Hi all,
I’m looking for new value suggestions for the “Corkeen” surface.
Corkeen is a brand name for a soft, permiable, cork-derived surface used in places such as a playgrounds. It’s similar to wet pour rubber but with cork rather than rubber as the core material.
We don’t use brand names for values (e.g., we use asphalt
rather than tarmac
eventhough the latter is more common in British English), so surface=corkeen
does not seem appropriate.
However, I’m not sure we should just use surface=cork
either. This is because it’s not just purely cork (it uses different layers and binding agents) and so might cause confusion for data consumers (e.g., with actual cork surfaces on information boards).
Current usage for surface=cork
is small (just three uses in Spain and Portugal, prior to my tagging) but in those cases is being used for playgrounds.
Any thoughts?
