Made from apples.

Ethics meets aesthetics in our collection made with AppleSkin, an innovative, sustainable and qualitative material, alternative to animal leather, made from apple waste of the food industry.

These bags are made of apples from the Italian region of Trentino Alto Adige, renowned for their great apple plantation.  Even better, they’re made from apple waste from the food industry that would have been otherwise destroyed. 

Less impact, more style.
Welcome to the future.

- APPLE SKIN -

[Production process]
A by-product of the apple juice industry:
• Apple discards feed-stock is dried and minced.
• The obtained apple powder is mixed with a polyurethane and dye compound.
• The resulting mixture is then coagulated onto textiles and then coated to obtain color and texture.

[Composition]
26% Apple | 38% Polyurethane (PU) | 20% PET polyester | 16% Cotton
Lining: 100% RPET (Recycled PET polyester)

[Environmental impact]
AppleSkin is a vegan and sustainable alternative to animal leather.
- This material has excellent yield and remarkable performance.
- Withstands water and sunlight and lasts up to 8 years without any sign of wasting, like synthetic leathers on the market.
- This innovative material perfectly replaces similar materials (petroleum derivatives) but with 100% organic waste.
- The carbon footprint of polyurethane is about 5,28 kg CO2 eq/kg PU compared to apple waste recovery, considered to have zero impact instead: this leads to a saving of 5,28 kg CO2 for every Kg of apple waste used to replace the PU.
