SKIN for Products

It is a new choice of material for the sustainable sociery.
NUNOUS has two characterisitcs of both leather and fabric.
Also it can be processed by die cutting as well as it is double sided.
So there is a great possibility for it's usage from a wallet, a bag, and other various apparel items.

NUNOUS makes people think for themselves about the mass disposal,
and upcycles it to be spotlighted in the center stage.
Also reducing CO₂ for Global warming.

Reborn of the out of standard materials

Out of standard textile materials are very hard to recycle, and in most cases it was chipped or burned, in means of disposal. NUNOUS approaches the problem by upcycling the materials without spoiling it's feel and color. We make the “Unseen Disposal” to be “Beautifully Visible”. By doing so, we connect the disposal with the companies and people in a new style.
Leather like fabric

The edge of the materials never fray like the fabric, so there is no need for the edge treatment and you can free-cut for production. It can even be used without any stitches for production as well. It is not a substitute for leather, but a totally new material with the taste of leather.
Double sided and transparency

There is no right side up for this material, but can be used on either side. It can also be made extremely thin for higher transparency.
A pattern that resembles abstract paintings and natural stones

It is all one of a kind pattern like that of nature. Also it has the strength and durability to withstand the industrial standard.

Color, pattern, and texture:

Colors and patterns may vary greatly from product to product due to the color and characteristics of the raw material cloth.
Since the type of cloth used as raw material affects the texture, the texture may vary greatly.
NUNOUS features standard colors, however, colors may vary slightly as we use non-standard materials that are available at the time. We ask our clients to verify the color at the time of ordering and provide prior approval of the actual products. We do not accept any returns based on color, pattern, and texture.
We also accept order requests for non-standard colors. We will suggest a color that is closest to your desired color from the non-standard products. We are able to reflect your corporate colors and theme colors.

Patterns on NUNOUS

NUNOUS is manufactured by layering hundreds of fabrics and infusing them with a biopolymer. Due to the soft nature of fabric, NUNOUS becomes slightly undulated and warped even when layered flat.
Undulation and warping remain even after being pressure-molded, which appear as a pattern when cut horizontally.
No single patterns are the same.
