Zusammenfassung:The present invention falls within the cork industry, more specifically in the cork preparation subsector, and refers to a greenhouse (1) for stabilization of cork planks for subsequent use in the cork stopper industry. Thus, the object of the present invention is a cork stabilization greenhouse (1) comprising a fan (2), two means of air intake (3) inside the greenhouse (1), two cabinets (7) (8) intended to house the elements of the systems of measurement and control, composed by thermocouples (4), humidity sensors (5) and two solar panels (6) for photovoltaic energy production and storage. A further object of the present invention is a method of stabilization through the steps of a) placing the cork planks inside the greenhouse (1); b) raising the temperature inside the greenhouse (1) to a value between 50°C and 70°C; c) recirculating the air; and d) stabilizing the cork for a period of 2 to 5 months.
