About Coffee Vegan Leather

Coffee Vegan Leather is a vegan synthetic leather made from waste coffee beans, which are effectively used to create high-quality, long-lasting synthetic leather. The company is constantly evolving its business. The waste coffee beans used are made by recycling "out-of-specification" waste beans generated during coffee roasting and other processes, as well as coffee grounds after extraction.

First in Japan (*) according to our research, as of March 20, 2023.

Proven to be durable for 10 years, the material is now being marketed as a material for furniture.

Stacy Corporation has begun selling coffee vegan leather that can be used as furniture and building materials. In a jungle test conducted under strict conditions set by the company, this material was confirmed that the fabric does not deteriorate even after 10 weeks. In this test, one week is considered equivalent to one year, resulting in a 10-year durability(*).
