Our #tbthursday goes to our volunteer @origin_te_y Our #tbthursday goes to our volunteer @origin_te_yonton who has been with us for a while now and has shared with us his ethnic jewellery He's helped us #repurpose Some of a huge donation of fake fur, faux or PU leather and leatherette we received. His creations are now for sale in our shop. Sustainability Differences Real leather can be a turn off to some consumers since it is not a vegan material. Real leather tends to be difficult to manufacture and costs more to make. PU leather may use fewer resources to produce, but the plastics do not decompose and aren’t eco-friendly. However, if you are looking for a vegan leather, 100 percent PU leather is a great option. Bonded leather could be considered sustainable because it uses the scraps and fibers leftover from making real leather, but over time, it can release some of the chemicals used during the manufacturing process. Bonded leather is not a vegan product because it can contain between 10 to 20 percent real leather. Source: btod.com
