Is the world’s first durable, waterproof fabric made purely from banana plants. Cultivated in the philippines within a natural ecosystem of sustainable forestry, the plant requires no chemical treatments.
Project Vegea®
Valorizing agro-industry biomass and residues as high-value feedstocks transforming them into new materials. Collaborating with italian wineries, we have developed a process for the valorization of wine waste: grape marc, that is composed by grape skins, stalks and seeds discarded during wine production.
Sourced and produced in Europe
Develop the sourcing and production there where you sell your goods. In our case this is all European oriented. 90% of our materials and 95% of our production is European based.
