Why would you call something “plant based” when it uses a lot of plastic which after short time degrades and exposes it to the environment?

    My point was more that harmful chemicals in the sense of chromium salts etc. aren’t present in veg tan which, for the most part, is boiling it in a load of tree bark.

      oh i completely misunderstood your comment, i didn’t see the “veg” before the tanning, so i thought your were writing about tanning in general
