GREEN CONTINUE is developing environmentally friendly products to realize sustainable value.
Without animal cruelty and with 0% animal resin, Green Continue fabric is a certified vegan product. Our eco-friendly fabric is manufactured using a special blending technology that combines plant cellulose extraction techniques and natural materials.
By upcycling agricultural byproducts discarded in various regions of Korea into fabric, we contribute to reducing carbon emissions compared to incineration, while decreasing carbon emissions by at least 30% per yard compared to natural cowhide leather.
March 2023 KATRI Certification: 72.44% Biomass Content / October 2023 USDA Certification: 78% Biomass Content (approximately 20% higher than overseas companies). We transparently disclose all figures and continue researching and growing for more perfect eco-friendliness.
We are helping to provide supplementary income by collecting and purchasing by-products discarded by farmers in various regions of Korea. We continuously collaborate with farmers in some underprivileged areas to create a sustainable ecosystem.
