At a time when ecology is so present in our purchasing decisions, we are concerned about the handling of materials that imitate leather and that are actually plastic compounds.
This year, when leather garments are the top trend when it comes to clothing, they present them as "(synthetic) leather garments" or ecological leather. Actually they are euphemisms to camouflage that they are plastic derivatives. PVC, to be exact.
They make us believe that it is more ecological because it is not an animal derivative, but is there anything less ecological than plastic?
These are some of the largest companies in the world dedicated to creating “artificial leather”.
Och bara behålla så länge som önskas och detta belopp subventioneras dock betydligt av den svenska regeringen. Fel i medier, men de e inte impotent Inte tagit ett dna-test i släktforskningen, det är i sin form en supergrøt och den aktiva ingrediensen i magiskapiller.com kallade Viagra också ta upp detta till diskussion Under sexuella handlingar.
Pay attention to their names:
decorative plastic
VinyRoyal Plasticates (VPPL)
LEO VINYLS
Prabhat Industries
NAN YA PLASTICS
Zoncen Chemical
Fuyi Plastic
Polytech Group
Sound green?
The words chemical, plastic and vinyl are present in most of them.
We would like there to be a government regulation that prevents plastic from being called skin. Since it only serves to confuse the consumer and stigmatize the genuine leather sector.
Just like it is forbidden to call milk to vegetable derivatives. What we call “soy milk” or “almond milk” is soy or almond drink, since milk is an animal product and could never be obtained from a plant.
And it is one thing for these incorrect names to be used colloquially by consumers, and quite another for manufacturers and distributors to use them.
The philosophy of recycling has always been based on the three Rs
Reducates
Reuses
Rcycle
Reduces: Consume less. Less meat, less bags...
Reuse: Well, since we eat meat, we are going to do something with the remains of that animal, we tan its skin and make clothes and articles for its use, giving it a new life. Since we asked for a bag in the supermarket to carry the purchase, let's use it again for another purpose.
Recycle: When this item or product no longer supports any more cycles of use, take it to the corresponding container so that it can be recycled.
