BIODEGRADABLE AND RECYCLED SOLES - DIFFERENCES AND QUALITY

Innovation is, for us, the perfect combination of tradition and the future.

“craft care in the industrial product”

A perfect fit achieved with the inclusion, as of this year, of biodegradable and recycled soles.

Differences and quality

Biodegradable soles originate from the microporous soles we have been producing for years now. A special additive is inserted during the manufacturing processes that makes them biodegradable and therefore easy to dispose of.

This means that they are dissolved into their constituent chemical elements by the action of biological agents such as bacteria present in environments prepared for disposal, a long process that takes 5 years.

Biodegradable soles do not lose in terms of aesthetics as they perfectly meet the standards of beauty, utility, touch and comfort.

When we talk about recycled soles, however, we refer to the reuse of microporous processing waste, which instead of being disposed of, is pulverized and kneaded again for new production. The soles, therefore, reproduced appear different aesthetically because they are already used materials but retain the same comfort and utility as other soles.

What is the essential difference between the two soles?

These are two ways to contribute to the well-being of the planet, but if with biodegradable soles we work on facilitating waste disposal, with recycled soles we work on not generating waste.

We are really proud of these new projects, especially now that we are living through this strange and difficult time for all of us, in which we have to struggle and reinvent ourselves to start over, and what better way than by helping the planet? The latest news shows that the earth is breathing again and that pollution has decreased.

This is where we need to start from!

We have always been sensitive to environmental issues by already working with environmentally sustainable materials such as cork and installing in the company, photovoltaic panels. The deeply green approach has always been the protagonist of company policy, as our slogan states:

“We produce with the power of the sun.”
