Collection: Cactus Leather Wallets for Men and Women

DESSERTO, THE CACTUS LEATHER

Made with Cactus

It is world's first highly sustainable, environment friendly organic material created from Nopal cactus. Cactus leather, a USDA certified bio based material, is created from leaves of the plant which can be harvesting every 6-8 months without harming or cutting the plant. After cutting the mature leaves, they are dried under the sun for three days until achieving the exact humidity levels and there’s no additional energy used in this drying process. It takes approximately 3 leaves to create one linear meter of cactus leather.

Plant Based Leather

It is one of the most sustainable plant based vegan leather using very limited resources in terms of land and water. The cactus uses 200 liter of water instead of 1000 liter of water by any other plant to create 1 kg of plant based dry material. This consumption is 5 times less water in comparison to any other plant used to create bio based material, which too, cactus absorbs in natural way like from rain water or from the morning dew in environment without any extra irrigation. As for the land usage the same plantation can be used to harvest cactus leaves for 8 years as compare to other plants which have to be harvested annually.  

The production of cactus leather creates a negative CO2 emission. This is because of the great CO2 holding capacity of the plant which even absorbs CO2 at night. The 14 acres of land used to plant cactus absorbs 8,100 tons of CO2 while the production farm only generates 15.30 tons of CO2 annually.
