KORK IS vegan

herlinde

Veganism is much more than a purely nutritional issue - as with other forms of nutrition or diets. Being vegan is a way of life. Thinking outside the box is a must.

That's how ClarissaKORK came to cork: Not because she is vegan, but because she heard about this special vegan leather and wanted to know what it was. In addition to the obvious candidates such as fur and leather, there are also materials which, on closer inspection, are not entirely vegan and are therefore not suitable for vegans. This is because animal content is often used in adhesives (fabric composites) or dyes. ClarissaKORK cork carpets do not contain any animal ingredients, neither in the cork leather, nor in the colors or the adhesive (for bonding the granules and the leather).

However, whether leather or faux leather is not just a vegan issue. And for many, neither is an alternative: leather is not an option for ethical reasons. And artificial leather may look nice, but it has nothing in common with the great properties of leather apart from the look - artificial leather is synthetic and also not breathable. So for many years - albeit with a guilty conscience - real leather was used.

Cork leather now offers a real alternative. The surface is smooth yet velvety, has a texture and feels deceptively similar to conventional leather. And there are already a large number of products made from this universally ingenious material: from bags to shoes, jackets and purses. Even entire living room landscapes are made from it.
