 The Vision

releaf-rohstoff.jpg

Next-gen leather alternatives you can feel good about

"Today’s global fashion is one of the largest drivers of global warming. ​It’s time for that to change."

Producing leather and faux leather in the age of fast fashion continues to have a devastating effect on our planet, including the needless slaughter of millions of animals, pollution from chemicals, dyes and heavy metals, and unnecessary plastic waste. We must change the way we produce textiles in order to preserve our planet.

Derived from abundant plant-based resources, NUVI Releaf reduces carbon emissions compared to traditional and synthetic leather production.* It’s also completely biodegradable, further making it a sustainable alternative to leather and current synthetic surrogates.
