MIRUM®
MIRUM® is a revolutionary material that offers an alternative to animal leather and synthetic fabrics. Made in the USA from responsibly sourced, all-natural ingredients, it requires no plastics, no water, and no tanning — perfect for the conscious, future-thinking consumer seeking sustainable luxury.
Plant-based
Plastic-free
Non-toxic
Water resistant

This was measured through a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), which calculates the environmental impact of products or services throughout their entire lifecycle.
How MIRUM® is made
MIRUM® is crafted in the USA at the Natural Fiber Welding (NFW) facility in Peoria, Illinois, powered by renewable wind energy.
The texture is formed by applying heat and pressure to the rubber-based material. This process allows the MIRUM® to seamlessly bond with the cotton backing, removing the need for any glues.
The production process uses no additional water beyond what’s found in the natural ingredients, resulting in zero wastewater discharge – a key issue with leather production.
