Production process
Made of leftover hemp fibers from CBD products.
The main ingredient comes from hemp fields in Germany. The plant does not need any harmful pesticides for its cultivation.
Their specialized machinery allows for an energy-efficient production process, for a result putting forward a material requiring neither a substrate nor a coating - which offers customers many benefits in terms of variability.
The technology behind LOVR and its manufacturing is scalable.
Manufacturing facts
Prototype, samples upon request
production time
Revoltech's basing LOVR off circularity at three levels: raw materials, recyclability & biodegradability.
LOVR’s manufacturing process requires only 0.3% of the CO2 emissions animal leather production is leaving out for the environment.
LOVR’s manufacturing is carried out from residues of hemp cultivated in Germany, where the plant is primarily grown for medicinal and nutritional purposes - with Revoltech taking care of the leftovers and unwanted by-products.
