PINATEX®
Piñatex® is a natural, innovative and patented new material, made from pineapple leaf fibers gathered by partner farming cooperatives in the Philippines.
Piñatex® fibers are the by-product of the pineapple harvest, which brings new income streams to subsistence farmers, allowing them to fully utilize their crops. This material is composed of 80% pineapple leaf fibres and 20% PLA fibers. Natural, vegan and durable, Pinatex is sourced in the Philippines and finished in Spain. No extra land, water, fertilizer or pesticides are required to produce the raw material. No pineapples are harmed in the making of Pinatex!
CORK
Our cork fabric is sourced from Spain. Cork, the bark of the cork oak tree, is beautiful, naturally water resistant and durable. Cork harvesting is done sustainably, allowing the tree to regenerate and absorb more CO2, benefiting the environment.
The harvesting of cork also creates well paid agricultural jobs and the financial viability of cork helps provide long term habitat protection for hundreds of animal and plant species. According to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) “cork oak forests support one of the highest levels of biodiversity among forest habitats, as well as the highest diversity of plants found anywhere in the world”.
ITALIAN VEGAN LEATHER
We are in the process of retiring our Italian vegan leather collection so grab one of our original styles before they head to our archives!
Our vegan leather PU (polyurethane) is sourced from Italy from a family-owned factory. This eco-conscious factory has installed photovoltaic generators on the roofs in order to produce green energy and save Co2. Their processes are constantly monitored in order to provide product fully compliant with the recent "REACH" European norm which is much more stringent than other countries.
BIOVEG
BioVeg is an innovative vegan fabric made in Italy with recycled polyester from plastic bottles and bio polyols, obtained from non-food and GMO-free corn crops. This fabric contains at least 75% biomass from renewable resources - one of the highest percentages available on the market.
BioVeg is the result of years of R&D by our Italian supplier who are committed to developing high-tech, sustainable fabrics.
