Econic

by Vyva Fabrics · Netherlands · ONA1004 · Published 11 Jan 2024
About this material

Econic is a durable and high-quality artificial leather that looks like natural linen and feels pleasant to touch.

The innovative material in the Econic collection is completely phthalate-free and contains 75% biobased, recycled and renewable ingredients. Sustainable products have been used in production, such as bio-attributed PVC resins originating from agricultural and forestry biomass, and bio-based plasticizers derived from soybean oil. The material contains no chemical FR (flame retardant) additives, and still meets the European fire standard EN 1021 (part 1&2).

The backing consists of 100% recycled polyester made from used plastic water bottles, and the collection has the eco-label OEKO-TEX® Standard 100. This quality label guarantees that the synthetic leather does not contain any substances that could be harmful to people or the environment.

The upholstery fabric for indoor and outdoor use, is available in no less than 25 carefully selected warm, inviting and timeless shades that make every interior and exterior, modern and classic, sparkle.
