When Our Daily Lives Harmonize with Nature: Efforts for a Sustainable Life

When Our Daily Lives Harmonize with Nature: Efforts for a Sustainable Life

Did you know that Labovarde’s slogan is 'Smart Design, Sustainable Life' and our three core keywords are Smart, Sustainable, and Life Style?

Among these, our deep commitment and effort toward a 'Sustainable Life' are most clearly revealed in the fundamental 'materials' that make up our products.

"How much more special would our daily lives be if we added harmony with nature to the inherent charm of leather?"

Today, we would like to talk about how the value of the Circular Economy that Labovarde dreams of permeates our products, and the quiet yet solid changes we are making.

 

The 'Circular Economy': Breathing New Life into the Discarded

 

 

True eco-friendliness goes beyond simply using fewer resources; it lies in building a 'Circular Economy' where resources that have served their purpose naturally return to nature or are reborn with new value.

 

Labovarde is moving toward a future that reduces daily carbon emissions by replacing conventional leather with eco-friendly alternatives. At the heart of this journey is 'Bio-Leather'. We utilize plant-based biomass extracted from corn to completely transform discarded leather into a brand new, eco-friendly material.


The Astounding Reduction Effects of Bio-Leather, Proven by Numbers

 

 

Choices for nature must lead to clear results, not just vague slogans. The environmental reduction effects created by 1m² of Labovarde's bio-leather are as follows:

  • 7,482.95kg of CO2 Reduction: This is the amount of carbon emissions reduced per m² when using bio-leather. It is equivalent to planting 252 young pine trees over an area of 840m².
  • 80,058.63L of Water Saved: We have drastically reduced the massive amount of water consumed during the leather manufacturing process by nearly 80,000 liters per m².

Simply changing the material of the wallet we hold every day can protect such vast forests and clean water.

 

'True Sustainability': Staying Long, Returning Safely

 

Of course, no matter how eco-friendly a material is, if it breaks easily, it only creates more waste.

Throughout this process, Labovarde never compromised the inherent beauty and durability of leather. We achieved a quality that harmonizes with the user's touch and individuality, allowing it to be used sturdily for a long time. At the same time, we maximized its biodegradability, keeping in mind the day it fulfills its purpose and returns to nature.

Staying by your side for a long time, and leaving no trace in nature when it leaves. This is Labovarde's definition of 'True Sustainability'.

 

Every Day, We Can Make Better Choices

We consume things every single day. And with every moment of consumption, we are given the opportunity to make a 'better choice'.

What if the Labovarde wallet, beautifully imbued with your traces, is actually the result of protecting the breath of 252 pine trees and saving pure water? Behind the minimalist design and flawless finish lies a healthy philosophy. Add sustainable value to your daily life with Labovarde.
