Some people think the future is garbage. Not us. We’re solution junkies! That’s exactly why we’re so excited to partner with Nanollose, a biotech materials company. Together, we’re creating a leather alternative made from trash.
It’s super cool and scientific. Here’s how it works:
-
Nanollose captures waste from the food and agriculture industries and feeds it to bacteria in order to create high-yielding cellulose fiber.
-
This is key: no trees are needed to make this fiber. That means it requires no land, sun or fertilizer—and hardly any water.
-
We’re using this tree-free fiber as the basis for our next alternative leather, coating it with bio-resin and making it look and feel like the premium material you love.
-
The material is designed to last for generations, but it’s also biodegradable in case it ever ends up in a landfill.
