今皆さんが使っている財布やバッグに使われている素材ってなんでしょうか?
先日、財布を新しくしようと気になっているブランドを検索したら、取り扱っている財布が動物の皮を使った本革製品(リアルレザー)だということを知りました。
以前までは素材など気にせず好きな物を買っていました。
しかしこのサイトを運営し始めて動物について深く考えるようになり、本革製品に違和感を感じるように。
そんな時に知ったのが、植物などからできる『ヴィーガンレザー(エコレザー)』の存在です。

ヴィーガンレザーとは?人工皮革や合成皮革との違いについて
ヴィーガンレザーというのは、天然由来の原料を使って作られたレザー風の素材のことです。
動物にも環境にも優しいエコな素材であることから、今大注目されています!
人工皮革や合成皮革との違いは?
ヴィーガンレザーの他にも、動物の皮を使わない素材として「人工皮革」と「合成皮革」があります。
人工皮革というのは、立体的に織った化学繊維にポリウレタン樹脂を染み込ませて作った素材です。
合成皮革というのは、化学繊維でできた布を樹脂でコーテイングした素材です。
このように、ヴィーガンレザーが天然由来の原料を使って作られているのに比べて、人工皮革と合成皮革は化学繊維を原料として作られているという違いがあります。
どれも動物の皮を使っていないので素晴らしい!けど、ヴィーガンレザーは使われている化学物質がより少ないんだね♪
