Materials
From The Beginning...
Solasta has been committed to using no animal-based materials in our collections as part of our cruelty-free ideology. Our products are made from non-leather, 100% vegan, eco-friendlier materials. We are very fortunate to be based in a land where organic, regenerated, recycled, reclaimed, and sustainable materials are readily available.
Fabrics
We have produced bags in everything from organic cotton fibers, bamboo, regenerated and recycled nylon fabrics (PET), Tencel Denim, hemp and hemp/PET blends, water-based microfiber polyurethanes, and reclaimed (deadstock).
Vegan Leather
Our vegan leather is a modern material made from water-based PU. It is less toxic in its production, meaning it is less harmful to our environment.
Finishes & Coatings
We use a waterborne polyurethane dispersion that offers:
- Low VOC, Low toxicity
- Excellent Water Resistance
- Good gloss and hardness
- Good strength
- High Elongation
- Excellent abrasion resistance
This coating can be used on almost all your products from natural fibers to synthetic fabrics and is offered in matte, semi-matte, and gloss finishes.
Adhesives
We use glue that is derived from synthetic materials, and not any type of animal cells or milk proteins.
