Oleatex™
Innovative alternative to synthetic materials
Made by Turkish-based Oleago®
Oleatex™ is an innovative alternative to synthetic materials, using olive oil production waste in Turkey. This material is crafted by blending the byproducts of olive oil production to form a bio-based polyurethane (PU) top coating and then bonding it to textile backings such as cotton, viscose and recycled polyester. By repurposing waste from the olive oil industry, Oleatex™ transforms what would typically be discarded into a material that reduces the need for plastic-based components.
