PINATEX
Pinatex is a sustainable alternative to leather and other environmentally harmful non-leather alternatives. It is however just as strong, durable, flexible, and more lightweight and breathable than many other materials.
Pinatex is an innovative material formed through the process of stripping pineapple leaves into fine fibres through. This process is refered to as decortication.
These fibres are converted into a 'mesh' like material and then go through a manufacturing process to create what you see.
The pineapple leaves used are a waste product of an existing worldwide industry, and require no additional land, water, fertilizers or pesticides. As such, the production of the leaves has virtually no environmental impact.
