This is a very crucial time on earth to be concerned about ‘Saving the Earth’ from our own wrong doings. Some might think that every act of saving the earth should be of large scale. But any action, big or small does contribute for a larger cause.

These two friends felt that they need to contribute their part to minimize environmental pollution. They left their jobs to work on an idea they came up with.

The mature leaves are mashed and dried prior to the processing method. And after it is converted into “Desserto”, the Vegan leather, it feels exactly as the leather in today’s market. Customizable, resilient, breathable and elastic. This might become a huge contributor to the world’s movement towards a green future.
