Wastea

WASTEA transforms Class 4 tea waste into a plant-based leather alternative, offering a sustainable solution for multiple industries. This material repurposes tea industry byproducts that would otherwise go unused, reducing waste and promoting circular production.

The material is made from upcycled tea leaves and natural binders and contains up to 95% biobased materials.

How It’s Made
Tea leaves are collected, processed, and combined with bio-based polymers to create a high-performance material. The process minimizes waste and ensures a sustainable, cruelty-free alternative to traditional leather.
