Covina, July 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global bio-based leather market share, worth USD 760.9 Million in 2024, is anticipated to expand to USD 1553.9 Million by 2034, reflecting a CAGR of 8.2%.

Bio-based Leather Market Report Overview

The bio-based leather is a plant-based leather that is sourced from the plant extract/material and later it is manufactured for other commercial uses. As an alternative to conventional leather, which is usually derived from animal hides, plant-based leather is sometimes referred to as vegan leather or eco-leather. A multitude of materials, such as pineapple leaves, mushrooms, corn, apple peels, and recycled plastic, can be used to make plant-based leather. The market for plant-based leather has surged recently due to consumer interest in eco-friendly and sustainable products.

The remarkable qualities of bio-based leather include its sustainability, resilience, and low weight. Given that it doesn't negatively impact the environment, it is a sustainable substitute for leather generated from animals. However, the biggest drawback of vegan leather is that it occasionally uses polymers, which are permanently fixed and absolutely non-biodegradable. Some people would even go so far as to say that fake leather has worse consequences than genuine leather.

Growing consumer desire for environmentally friendly products, knowledge of the negative environmental consequences of traditional leather, and developments in material science have all contributed to the growth of the bio-based leather business. Customers are looking for sustainable solutions, and the fashion sector is no different. Nevertheless, it will be difficult for bio-based leather to function and last as well as conventional leather. It can be difficult to replicate the durability, suppleness, and breathability of real leather with materials derived from plants. Compared to conventional leather, bio-based leather could be more prone to splits, scratches, and moisture absorption. To minimize their negative effects on the environment and produce high-quality, useful plant-based leather, manufacturers are continuously innovating new materials and production methods.

Eco-friendly alternative

  • Bio-based leather is a sustainable and ethical alternative to traditional leather obtained from animal derivatives, derived from renewable plant-based sources like pineapple leaves, apples, and mushrooms. Thus, less demand for new resources leads to fewer environmental impacts compared with traditional leather production methods. Very often, bio-based leathers make use of agricultural by-products/wastes and eventually contribute to the so-called 'circular economy'. The manufacturing processes generally are less harmful to the environment in terms of using less water, energy, and less toxic chemicals compared to traditional leather tanning. In most cases, these bio-based leathers can be biodegradable and compostable at the end of their life, hence reducing waste. Some examples of the alternatives of leather bio-based are Piñatex, AppleSkin, and Mirum. All in all, alternative leather made from bio-based materials offers cleaner, circular, and more ethical creation in comparison with traditional leather throughout its lifetime.

Growing demand due to awareness

  • The environmental and ethical debates surrounding conventional animal leather are going to shift demand towards bio-based alternative leathers. These new bio-based leathers have cleaner, more environmental sources—most of the time, even from agricultural wastes. With changing times, scientists are coming up with bio-based leathers similar to traditional ones like Piñatex, AppleSkin, and Mylo. These outcome-based marketing techniques help the companies manufacturing bio-based leaders to communicate their environmental and ethical advantages to a growing consumer segment. Fashion brands from the luxury end have begun integrating bio-based leather alternatives into their product ranges.

Market Trends:

Technological developments in bio-based leather

  • Biotechnology helps to concentrate much on generating bio-fabricated and engineered leathers from this market of bio-based leather, increasing the amount of plant-based sources with enhanced quality, and durability, and recycling leather waste. New methods of processing are being invented to extract fibers from renewable sources, such as pineapple leaves, mushrooms, apple peels, and agricultural wastes that look upon sourcing raw materials in an eco-friendly way. Improvements in mechanical properties, appearance, and durability are further enhanced by technological advances in biocomposites and nanomaterials. Additives and surface treatments drive performance improvement in bio-based leather. New technologies are being developed for recycling post-consumer leather waste into bio-based alternatives, such as reProLeather. On the other hand, lab-grown leather is going to be more ethically and environmentally approvingly produced than conventional leather manufacturing methods.
