ABOUT NUVI

A NEW ERA

NUVI stands for nouvelle vie – a new way of living where beauty and quality go hand in hand with sustainability and ethics.

WHAT WE
STAND FOR

Earth
Driven

Pure and unapologetically plastic-free, NUVI is a game-changer. By harnessing the power of locally abundant and toxic-free sources, our materials are a testament to nature's genius. From the earth, back to the earth – we’re committed to circular solutions from ideation to end.

Manufacturing
Might

Melding proven production processes with fresh ideas, NUVI is raising the bar for next-gen materials everywhere. Our German manufacturing capabilities backed by a global reach ensures quality, reliability and a dedication to sustainability at any scale.

Natural
Design

NUVI materials echo the raw beauty of the locally-sourced plants and minerals they were derived from. With unadulterated textures, surfaces and colors to choose from, we let nature lead our design narrative. Each textile is more than a product, it’s a story waiting to be told.

Innovation
Inspired

Fusing forward-thinking with the latest tech, NUVI creates performance materials that aren't just functional – they're magical. Born in an era of possibility and with an innovative spirit at our core, we're not just setting standards, we’re soaring beyond them.

OUR ROOTS

Originally from Germany, NUVI’s founder Nina Rössler left her job as a product designer in search of something else. She knew her personal beliefs — valuing the planet over profit — did not match how the industry operated.

While living in Southeast Asia, she worked closely with local artisans, studying how to transform the region’s abundant teak leaves into a natural leather-alternative. Fueled by inspiration, she launched NUVI in 2014 and soon began developing her own processes in Germany.

This is when her father, Andreas Rössler, joined the effort. With his extensive engineering background, they forged an industrial-scale manufacturing process poised to revolutionize the industry.​ Their combined passion and expertise became the backbone of NUVI, inspiring us to grow into the world we serve today.

TEAMWORK
makes the dream work

Our team – composed of engineers, entrepreneurs and industry experts – guides our thinking, spirit and can-do-it attitude.
