Plant Waste.
Re-Engineered.
Bioleather is a plant-based leather alternative made from tomato waste — engineered for brands, designers, and manufacturers who demand performance without compromise.
As Seen On.
Our Innovation Pipeline
Future Fabrics
We don't just stop at tomatoes. We are engineering a diverse ecosystem of bio-materials to replace synthetics in every application.
Flagship Innovation
The tomato Revolution
Bioleather intercepts agricultural waste streams from the Italian tomato industry. Through proprietary bio-polymerization, we transform skins and stems into a high-performance, circular material.
Material Detail: BL-TMT
Our “Vine Green” finish exhibits a deep, multi-tonal grain derived naturally from the fibrous structures of tomato stems.
Flagship Innovation
The Mango
Fiber Matrix
Harnessing the high-tensile cellulose of discarded mango pits. We’ve unlocked a structural resilience that enables ultra-thin, high-performance textiles for the fashion of tomorrow.

01
Bio-Harvesting
Waste Stream Interception
We intercept industrial tomato processing streams at the point of extraction. By reclaiming discarded skins and stems, we prevent 4.2 tons of methane-emitting waste per production cycle.
Phase Details
02
Stabilization
The raw organic matter is refined into a stable bio-pulp. Our proprietary catalyst bonds plant cellulose with bio-based polymers, creating a high-density matrix that mimics the structural strength of animal hide.
Phase Details
03
Structural Layering
The bio-matrix is precision-layered onto an organic cotton or recycled hemp backing. Atmospheric heat-pressing ensures the fibers are fully integrated, providing industry-leading tear and tensile resistance.
Phase Details
04
Eco-Finishing
Final rolls are treated with natural Carnauba waxes and bio-oils. This creates a breathable, water-resistant shield that enhances the natural multi-tonal grain derived from the original tomato fibers.
