short by Anushka Singh / on Friday, 19 June, 2026
Gujarat entrepreneur Ravi Raj Desai uses apple peels and juice industry waste to make sustainable and eco-friendly vegan leather. Apple waste is dried and turned into powder form, which is then blended with resin to make a sustainable and durable fabric, Desai said. The fabric looks and feels like traditional leather but is cruelty-free.
