Maravillas Bags are handcrafted sustainable bags designed by Christina Bussmann. Mediterranean design combined with traditional craftsmanship.
This is an overview of THE VEGAN PIÑATEX COLLECTION made from an innovative, natural and sustainable non-woven textile made from pineapple leaf fibers as a green and animal friendly alternative to leather and petroleum based materials. The material is called Piñatex™.
It is a vegan leather alternative!
The pineapple leaves are a by-product of the pineapple harvest, which means no extra water, fertilizers or pesticides are required and the waste of the harvest is minimized.
This textile is water resistant, strong, versatile, breathable, soft, light, flexible, and has passed the ISO international standards tests for: seam rupture, tear resistance, tensile strength, light and colour fastness and abrasion resistance.
