qiltro x Desserto®

This is Desserto®

Heavy metals and toxic dyes are needed for conventional leather production. This is a direct result of the beef industry which consumes a large amount of land, water and energy, generating considerable waste. 

Desserto® is the world's first highly sustainable and environmentally friendly organic material made with Nopal cactus, also known as the prickly pear. This innovative material is PETA, USDA Organic, OEKO TEX certified among other accreditations.
