About Veggani:
VEGGANI is a vegan handbag brand that believes in the protection of people, animals, and the planet.
Founder and Designer Laura de Waal’s goal in starting Veggani was to create stylish, functional, quality handbags that do not compromise their ethics but promote them. All of their handbags reflect their commitment to being socially responsible, environmentally conscious and animal-friendly. One of the key elements of VEGGANI’s mission is to not only help impoverished communities but to bring awareness to them. They use high-quality materials that are often recycled and/or repurposed. When possible, they work with and support smaller factories and artisan workshops. These efforts are never easy and require much more attention, research, and heart than creating a product without a conscience.
Animal-Friendly - Faux Leathers & Furs
Only animal-free materials are used to create their handbags. The best vegan leathers and faux furs are sourced and used for production. When possible, they use PU (Polyurethane) over PVC (Polyvinylchloride) as it is less harmful to the environment than PVC. They are a PETA approved company.
Recycled Linings
Many of their linings are created using Repreve & Recyctex. These are recycled fibers that contain recycled materials including post-industrial waste, used plastic bottles, and recycled fishnets. Both are certified sustainable and conserve resources because they offset the need to use newly refined crude oil. Compared to making virgin synthetic fibers, these materials use less energy and water and produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions. Using Repreve & Recyctex for their lining supports their commitment at Veggani to sustainability and eco-friendly practices.
