Sustainable Leather Technologies

Meatable, a prominent player in cultivated meat technology, has partnered with Pelagen, a company specializing in animal-free leather production, to advance sustainable leather manufacturing. This collaboration leverages Meatable’s opti-ox™ technology, which can efficiently cultivate animal cells, to enhance Pelagen’s ability to produce skin tissue for leather alternatives.

By combining their expertise, the two companies aim to optimize sustainable leather manufacturing by reducing costs, improving scalability, and ensuring high-quality outputs. This partnership represents a significant step for Meatable as it extends its innovative technology beyond the food industry. The availability of leather alternatives addresses major concerns related to animal welfare and the environmental impact of conventional leather production. For industries such as fashion, automotive, and interior design, this innovation provides an opportunity to adopt eco-friendly materials without compromising on product quality.
