Our materials

Skin recycling

We chose to work with leather because it is a natural material known for its robustness and durability. At Nat&Nin, raw materials represent 40% of its carbon footprint.

Our leathers come from waste from the food industry, which would otherwise be doomed to destruction during the tanning process.

These quality raw materials are selected from recognized and controlled tanneries in order to guarantee manufacturing carried out with respect for the environment and health.

Choosing the right materials
& partners

The leathers are tanned according to the laws in force in the European Community, in accordance with the REACH regulation (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization & Restriction of Chemicals) which limits the use of products harmful to the environment and health.

Most of our partner tanneries are LWG (Leather Working Group) certified, which is a guarantee of sustainability and responsible production in terms of energy. LWG is a protocol that certifies the tanning process in the use of energy and water, waste management and the use of chemicals previously adopted in the tanning processes.

"This sustainability approach is reflected in the close ties and strength of our relationships with our suppliers and partners with whom we have been working since our beginnings almost 15 years ago and allows us to ensure a level of environmental requirements and well-being for their employees."

Alternative to leather

Since summer 2022, Nat&Nin has been creating an elegant and timeless capsule collection where shiny leather meets a natural and authentic fiber: raffia.

Handcrafted in Madagascar, the Le Flâneur tote bag, Le Aligre and the Le Promeneur shoulder bag are transformed into bohemian it-bags.
