Biofabricating ethical and sustainable real leather using animal stem cells
Res(Kind) biofabricates ethical and sustainable real leather using animal stem cells. Unlike traditional leather, our method eliminates slaughter, antibiotics, and plastic, while reducing land and water use. Our core focus is leather, but our platform can also produce materials like wool and fur from animals, including goat, cow, and horse, for fashion and interior design. In the future, our technology can help protect near-extinct species like crocodiles, providing exotic biomaterials.
