At PoM (Peace of Mind), we're constantly striving to be a more sustainable and ethical brand. - We're excited to announce our new Vegan Leather Collection, featuring stylish and eco-conscious alternatives to traditional leather.
What is Vegan Leather?
Vegan leather, also known as faux leather, is a material designed to mimic the look and feel of leather, but without using animal hides. This makes it a cruelty-free and ethical choice for those who want to minimize their environmental impact. Vegan leather can be crafted from various materials, including:
- Synthetic polymers: Polyurethane (PU) is a common type, offering a leather-like texture and appearance.
- Plant-based materials: Sustainable options include cork, pineapple leaves (Piñatex), apple peels, corn, and even mushrooms!
Sustainable Style with a Lower Environmental Footprint
Compared to traditional leather production, vegan leather generally has a smaller environmental impact. Here's why:
- Reduced Animal Cruelty: No animals are harmed in the production of vegan leather.
- Less Land Use and Water Consumption: Vegan leather production typically requires less land and water compared to raising livestock for traditional leather.
- Lower Greenhouse Gas Emissions: The process of creating vegan leather often results in fewer greenhouse gas emissions.
