Description
PIÑATEX® is a vegan leather alternative made from fibers of the pineapple plant - a waste product of the pineapple harvest.
It is durable, flexible, breathable, water resistant and soft. It is suitable for making bags, furnitures and shoes.
Fibers from the pineapple leaves are used as raw material for the PIÑATEX® production, which do not have to be cultivated extra, as they are waste from the pineapple harvest. The long fibers are extracted still on the plantation. After washing, drying and degumming, a fibrefelt can be produced from it. This is tanned in Spain or Italy by using a process that nearly eliminates the use of non-recyclable chemicals. PIÑATEX® is not biodegradable.
Piñatex Performance is our answer to the market demand for a higher performance material and for those who prefer a smooth and flat surface. The base of the material is the same non-woven pineapple leaf fiber that Piñatex is known for.
The collection optimizes durability in terms of abrasion resistance and water repellency. This material is ideal for use in flat interior decoration and furnishings, as well as more structured pieces in fashion applications.
