Leap™ is upcycled apple waste from leftover cider and juice production turned into an eco-friendly plant-based leather alternative. With bio based waste at its core, the material is sustainable by design.

Thanks to our energy-efficient production, it takes us only 1 day to create Leap™ using 99% less water and ~85% less CO2* than traditional leather production while completely avoiding harmful substances.

The 3-layered structure is designed to be disassembled at the end of life which makes Leap™ a truly sustainable material.
