PAMELA (Appleskin) : Matières pour l’élément de la découpe des chaussures
High quality material, made in Florence, Italy.Apple-based alternative to animal leather. All materials are of Italian origin to reduce the environmental impact of transport.
Composition : Textile part: 20% GRS-certified recycled polyester (rPET); 16% GRS-certified recycled cotton. Coating: 40% polyurethane and 24% apple waste.
Each meter of PAMELA contains the equivalent of 8 apples, destined to be thrown away.
Ecological footprint : rPET consumes 10 times less energy, uses 1/3 less water and emits 50% less CO2 than virgin PET. This minimizes the use of new resources, preserving water and energy consumption thanks to organic waste and GRS textiles.
Furthermore, it recycles apple waste produced in Italy (30,000 tonnes produced every year).
