For years, alternatives to materials that harm our ecosystem have been sought. Leather has a significant environmental impact, but the options to replace leather fall short of industry needs.
The mission of sustainability has long been at odds with industry. But, does it need to be? By bringing innovative ideas to an industry with a deep history, we can evolve together.
Uncaged is a biomaterials company combining the power of nature and technology to reimagine leather.

After years of research, we have perfected a formula to create material networks that mimic leather without sacrificing the characteristics that make it a respected material for the fashion, automotive and home goods industries.
Thanks to the power of nature and biotechnology, we can replicate the quality and durability of leather. Our patent-pending technology gives us the flexibility to develop a distinctive array of leather alternatives that support different uses and markets.

Our process is scalable and our leathers take only hours to create, unlike the years it takes for traditional leather.

We eliminate the need to raise livestock, which is a top contributing factor to global warming, and use significantly less natural resources.
Our formulas can be fine-tuned to meet different price and durability requirements. The material can also be skived during leatherworking.
