Technologies and manufacturing processes

// WHY CACTI ARE BETTER THAN ANIMAL SKIN //
To produce the cactus leather, only the mature leaves are harvested, leaving the core of the cacti intact. This means that the leaves are regrown in 6-8 months and the cacti can be harvested again. The cacti are grown organically and do so in their natural habitat, meaning no irrigation systems or chemicals are used to grow the cacti. // PETA Approved Vegan // V-Label // USDA BioPreferred
// 94% LESS CARBON THAN LEATHER //
Our LCA study, conducted by the certified solution FAIRLY MADE®, shows that our CactusSkin emits 3.61 kg C02 per m², compared to 61 kg C02 per m² for animal leather.
