Lab-grown leather is a big step forward for ethical fashion, writes Daniel Reitberg. This revolutionary material is about to change the business world, and both fashionistas and animal rights campaigners will love it. Animal cells are used in lab-grown leather to make a bio-identical substitute for real leather. This means you can still get the look and feel of high-end leather without the social problems that come with normal leather production.
Imagine that your favorite purse or those cool shoes are made from eco-friendly materials that don’t hurt animals. You can get lab-grown leather, which is an option that fits with your values without lowering the quality. So stylish and good for the environment at the same time!
There are still problems to solve, though, before lab-grown leather can be widely used. It’s important to increase output to keep up with the fashion world’s needs. Realizing cost-effectiveness will also be important for making lab-grown leather available to more people. Despite these problems, the future of fashion looks more and more eco-friendly, thanks to progress like lab-grown leather.
