While the market for sustainable textiles is growing, there is a lack of alternative fashion accessories. That is why valupa is developing recyclable product designs for buckles, rings, hooks, etc. For example, the buckle (patent pending) consists of an upper and a lower part between which the strap is attached. In this way, the end customer can repair the buckle at home without having to undo any seams and the product becomes recyclable. The materials used are 100% bio-based and the company is also developing its own compostable material from biogenic waste.
