Contour Edition | Vegan Leather Agenda | Personal

Apple leather, also known as vegan leather, is a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional leather. It is made from apple pomace, which is the solid remains of the apple after juicing. The pomace is then ground into a fine powder and mixed with a polyurethane binder to create a material that looks and feels like leather.

One of the main benefits of apple leather is its environmental sustainability. It is made from waste products that would otherwise be discarded, and it does not involve the use of animal products or harmful chemicals. In terms of properties, apple leather is durable, water-resistant, and easy to clean. It is also available in a range of colors and textures, making it a versatile material for fashion, upholstery, and other applications. Overall, apple leather is an innovative and sustainable material that offers a range of benefits for both consumers and the environment.

RECYCLE Water & non-toxic chemicals.

Here are some tips and tricks to help you take better care of your new leather good.

First of all, clean the leather using a dry or slightly damped (warm water is best) delicate cotton cloth. While cleaning, make sure that the item does not get too damp. Always dry it off completely. Bad weather, humidity and heat can damage the leather irreversibly.

Above all, avoid contact with water. Try not to expose the item to rain. If you do get caught in bad weather, always wipe off the item immediately after with a dry cloth. Dry it off at room temperature, far from any heat sources. Do not use an electric dryer. Extended long-term exposure to heat and sunlight can cause deformation and color fading.

To prolong the lifespan of the item, it’s best to store it inside the box or bag it came in. You may also want to stuff it to avoid deformation.

Do not use any chemical substances such as solvents, polish removers or gasoline to clean or preserve the leather.
