Style and Sustainability
MIRUM® is a plant-based leather alternative that combines style with environmental responsibility. Made from natural rubber, plant oils, and upcycled agricultural by-products, it offers the look and feel of traditional leather while eliminating environmental harm. From luxury handbags to wallets, MIRUM® proves that fashion can be elegant, durable, and eco-friendly.
A New Standard in Leather Alternatives
MIRUM® is 100 percent plastic-free and bio-based. Unlike animal leather, which requires resource-intensive tanning, or synthetic leather made from petroleum, MIRUM® uses responsibly sourced rubber, plant oils, waxes, pigments, and upcycled materials such as coconut husks and cork powder. NFW’s plant-based curing system ensures USDA-certified bio-based quality. The material is available in multiple textures, finishes, and colors for bags, shoes, wallets, and automotive interiors.
Sustainability Benefits
MIRUM® has a low carbon footprint and requires no additional water during production. Fully recyclable and biodegradable, it reduces waste and prevents plastic pollution. Upcycled coconut husks and cork powder improve resource efficiency. Regenerative cotton backing supports soil health and biodiversity, making MIRUM® a leader in sustainable fashion materials.
Durability and Performance
MIRUM® is engineered to match or surpass traditional leather. It is resistant to tearing, abrasion, water, and UV light. Brands test MIRUM® products extensively to ensure long-lasting performance. Its durability combined with eco-credentials makes it a premium choice for conscious consumers.
Adoption by Leading Brands
Luxury and everyday brands embrace MIRUM®. Stella McCartney uses MIRUM® in high-end handbags. Bellroy integrates it into wallets, Svala offers MIRUM® handbags, and Secrid produces durable wallets. O My Bag, Camper, Melina Bucher, ASK Scandinavia, and Lost Woods showcase its versatility in accessories and footwear.
A Greener Future for Fashion
