Fermo, April 13, 2026 — SACE Components, the Italian manufacturer behind MarineCork, a 100% natural cork decking solution for the marine industry, announces an exclusive distribution agreement with Teakdecking Systems (TDS) for the U.S. market. The partnership marks a strategic step in the brand’s international growth, strengthening its position in one of the most important markets for high-end yachting.
