We are located in the center of persimmon production: Valencian Community
In 2020, the Valencian Community has produced 88.5% of the persimmon harvest from all over Spain.
In the last 6 years, Spain has gone from producing over 300 million kilos of persimmon to almost 500 million kilos, becoming the main exporting country in the world.
PROBLEMS
Until now, for the production of the leather and its synthetic alternatives, processes and materials such as the following have been needed:
• Use in large amounts of resources including: fuel, water, land and food.
• Toxic chemicals used in production with great impact on both the health of workers and the environment.
• Unimaginable creation of residues in the tanning process.
• Use of Synthetic materials that take many years to break down and release toxins.
OUR SOLUTION
However, from Persiskin, we propose a new alternative with much less environmental impact and the following features:
• For its production, no additional environmental resources are required to the raw material.
• We do not use chemicals or prohibited substances used in the production of our vegan leather.
• Our production process is closed circuit: We use the remains and surpluses of the persimmon harvest to create the final product.
Zero Waste
Persiskin is created from the surpluses of the existing persimmon crop, so no additional environmental resources are required for its production.
