Apple textile

Vegan and innovative

Apple leather is a modern, animal-free alternative to conventional animal leather. In addition to PU plastic, which forms the basis for standard synthetic leather, as well as polyester and cotton, the production process utilizes leftovers from apple juice and applesauce production. This creates a vegan material that feels just as high-quality and luxurious as real leather.

With a MILLA VON COSY bag, you are not only stylish on the go, but also carry a piece of your values with you—without compromising on quality.

We have consciously chosen an alternative to animal leather. Our apple leather contains no animal components. Its production eliminates the tanning of animal hides, and thus the wastewater generated during this processing step. Refraining from using animal materials is personally important to us.

Apfeltextil – Stance begins with a decision

For example, with cactus leather, there are many exciting alternatives to animal leather available today. However, we consciously decided on apple textile. This is because it is produced in Northern Italy, practically "on our doorstep," and is available in many qualities and colors.

We continue to search for innovative, nature-based materials. Our focus remains on preventing animal suffering and using resources responsibly.
