Vegan Leather: Redefining Luxury with Compassion and Craftsmanship.
At Deed Industries, we believe luxury should never come at the expense of the planet or its living beings. This philosophy lies at the heart of our design ethos, and it is beautifully embodied in our Numen Collection - a range of exquisite vegan leather bags, wallets, and accessories crafted from innovative, sustainable materials like cactus leather, coconut leather, and hemp. Unlike much of what is often marketed as vegan leather, none of our pieces contain plastic or PVC, ensuring our collections stay true to both ethical and environmental values.
What Is Vegan Leather?
Vegan leather is an alternative to traditional animal hides, created without any animal products or by-products. While some vegan leathers are made from plastics such as polyurethane or PVC our products take a different path. The vegan leather in our Numen Collection is entirely plant-based, crafted from natural materials such as cactus, coconut, and hemp.
These materials offer the supple beauty of leather while being cruelty-free, sustainable, and biodegradable, proving that ethical choices do not mean compromising on elegance or quality.
Why We Say No to Plastic and PVC
Many fast-fashion brands label synthetic plastics like PVC as "vegan leather". While technically true, this option carries significant environmental drawbacks. PVC production is highly polluting, non-biodegradable, and often results in harmful microplastics entering ecosystems.
At Deed Industries, we reject these shortcuts. Instead, we champion innovative, plant-based vegan leathers that align with our mission of creating ethical luxury goods that honour both people and the planet. By choosing materials like cactus leather and coconut leather, we ensure our pieces are as sustainable as they are stylish.
The Ethical Benefits of Vegan Leather
- Compassion Without Compromise
- Cruelty-free: Vegan leather avoids the suffering and exploitation of animals used in traditional leather production.
- Aligned with values: It reflects a conscious lifestyle, making every purchase a positive choice for those who care about animals, the planet, and ethical consumption.
- Supporting Ethical Craftsmanship
- Every item in our Numen Collection is handmade by skilled artisans who are paid fairly for their craft. In this way, we bring together ethical sourcing, responsible production, and a deep respect for craftsmanship.
The Environmental Benefits of Vegan Leather
Lower Environmental Impact -The traditional leather industry contributes significantly to deforestation, greenhouse gas emissions, and water pollution through chemical tanning processes. Plant-based vegan leathers, however, require fewer resources and avoid toxic chemical use, reducing overall environmental impact.
Innovative, Sustainable Materials
- Cactus leather: Made from mature cactus leaves, requiring minimal water and no pesticides.
- Coconut leather: Created from discarded coconut husks, offering a durable and biodegradable material while reducing agricultural waste.
- Hemp: A highly sustainable crop that grows quickly with little water and naturally enriches the soil.
- By incorporating these materials, the Numen Collection demonstrates that luxury and sustainability can work hand in hand.
The Practical Benefits of Vegan Leather
Vegan leather is not just an ethical choice - it is also highly practical:
- Durable: Resistant to fading, scratching, and water.
- Low-maintenance: Easier to clean and care for than animal leather.
- Versatile: Available in a wide range of finishes, textures, and colours, allowing for more creative designs.
- These qualities make the
Numen Collection not only timeless in style but also functional for everyday use.
The Numen Collection: Conscious Luxury Redefined
Inspired by the Latin word Numen, meaning divine presence or magical power, the Numen Collection embodies elegance, purpose, and sustainability. Each piece is carefully designed to add a touch of the extraordinary to everyday life, crafted with respect for animals, people, and the planet.
When you carry a piece from the Numen Collection, you are carrying more than just a beautiful accessory - you are carrying a statement of values. A belief that true luxury lies not just in appearance but in the ethics behind its creation.
