Svala was created with the following values in mind that drive everything that we do: high-quality vegan products, handcrafted locally and ethically from premium materials, offered without the traditional retail markup, with a brand focus on sustainability and giving back.  

PREMIUM VEGAN MATERIALS

Svala products are made with innovative, plant based materials including MIRUM® (a plastic-free vegan leather alternative), Pinatex® (made from pineapple leaf fiber), BioVeg (made from recycled plastic bottles and bio polyols) and cork from Portugal. Each Svala handbag is lined with fabric made with organic cotton and recycled poly made with plastic bottles.

Svala is a PETA approved brand and a Fur Free Retailer.

MADE LOCALLY IN LOS ANGELES

We manufacture all of our products in a world-class, downtown Los Angeles factory which ensures that the workers are paid a fair wage and have comfortable working conditions. Each Svala bag has been handcrafted by artisans. We love manufacturing close to home as we can be a part of the process and know who is crafting our products.   

MODERN LUXURY

Svala offers ethically and sustainably made, handcrafted products, made with the highest-quality, European vegan fabrics, without the traditional retail mark-up. As selling wholesale requires brands to increase their prices up to 250% or more, we have chosen to sell directly to you only. This allows us to pass the savings on to our customers so you can have the best of sustainable luxury without the heavily inflated prices.

SUSTAINABILITY AND GIVING BACK

With our recent partnership with Ecologi, a tree is planted with every Svala order. To date, we have planted over 1000 trees, avoided 10 tonnes of CO2e and funded climate projects all over the world including Brazil, India and Mexico.

In 2019, Svala was a nominee for the Eluxe Magazine sustainable luxury Eluxe Awards and in 2020 was awarded Best Vegan Brand of the Year. In 2023, Svala won an International Sustainable Award from the Luxury Lifestyle Awards.
