A brilliant idea that kills two birds with one stone.
An Indian start-up recently came up with a clever way to remove the flowers that are polluting the Ganges River. The company, Phool, did so by reusing the floral waste to create a new material¡XFleather. Fleather is a vegan alternative to leather. It feels as smooth as lamb skin, but no animals are harmed during its production.
Phool¡¦s story began when its founder, Ankit Agarwal, went sightseeing along the Ganges. He noticed lots of flowers floating on top of the polluted river. The flowers were tossed there by temple visitors while worshipping gods. This sight sparked his imagination, and he came up with the idea to reuse the flowers.
Since Phool was launched, the company has designed several products using Fleather, including wallets, sandals, and bags. To make Fleather look more like real leather, the company marks the surface with a crocodile-skin pattern. One of the best things about Fleather is that it is more than just a replacement for animal leather. The process of Fleather production also helps to make India¡¦s rivers cleaner. Fleather is an incredible example of a company using creativity to turn waste into something valuable while making the world a better place.
