Sustainable Belts
Conventional Belts
❌Avoid conventional belts as they are made with processed leather and other toxic chemicals such as glues
They are made with toxic and polluting materials such as nylon, synthetic, or other plastic-derived materials.
Greenwashing Belts
Greenwashing is when a brand pretends to be clean, green when it is not. It is a marketing tactic designed to mislead customers into buying their products.
Many came with vegan leather alternatives bringing more plastic to the world:
❌PVC: most vegan leathers today are currently made from PVC, made with petroleum. PVC is for this reason harmful to the environment.
❌PU is another synthetic vegan or faux leather, by definition, PU stands for Polyurethane, a plastic polymer derived from petroleum. Even less than PVC, PU still requires petroleum.
