EFM & ELeather® Partnership

ELeather and EFM are aligned in their commitment to minimising their own environmental impact at the same time helping consumers make more sustainable choices. There’s no doubt that nature’s resources are limited. Over-consumption is taking its toll on our planet. And there is an urgent need to recycle more and waste less.

ELeather and EFM are both keen to play their parts by producing responsibly manufactured goods. Our newest range of Monaco Wallet cases use ELeather and has helped saved 1.73kg of Carbon Dioxide emissions and 16.25 litres of water in the manucafturing process.

How ELeather® is made?

Each year, a shocking amount of leather is discarded and sent to landfill. ELeather collect that unused leather in order to recycle it into new materials.

The leather is carefully separated to preserve the natural, individual fibres. The fibres are locked together with a high-performance core using only the power of high-pressured water (which is then recycled back into the process).

Finally, the recycled leather is finished with the customer’s choice of colour and texture. It’s a unique, patented process that delivers the highest quality material at a fraction of the environmental footprint of traditional leather.

ELeather® and the environment

ELeather’s sustainability efforts are centred around three key pillars:

Increasing recycled content of their materials
Lowering carbon emissions within their manufacturing process
Reducing the use of Earth’s scarce resources such as water and land use

Their impact so far has seen them recycle enough leather to make 35 million pairs of shoes, offset enough energy to power a mid-sized town and save enough water to fill 18,000 Olympic swimming pools.
