Nova Kaeru is a exotic bio leathers tannery, specialized in organic tanning on fish leathers and a plant based material called beLEAF™. Pioneering in organic tanning technology, Nova Kaeru developed chrome free tanning methods which do not use heavy metals called “Bio leather”, and “seamless” Panels (Kaeru ® Process) which allow large panels to be produced from smaller leathers.

The fish skin is a by-product of the food industry and comes from sustainably managed farms controlled and regulated by IBAMA which is the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources. Nova Kaeru has developed its own organic, chrome-free tanning technology, based on a blend of biodegradable acrylic resins, polymers, glutaraldehyde, synthetic and vegetable tannins which make a superior quality leather free of heavy metals and environmentally safe.

Nova Kaeru has also developed a vegan “leather” alternative called beLeaf™, derived from the large tropical plant leaves (called ‘Elephant Ear’) and tanned with an organic process. The tropical plant leaves are not monoculture, commercial crops – they are renewable resources that grow freely on the banks of forests and rivers. They are collected in sustainable areas near the Nova Kaeru facilities and planted together with reforestation farms. The close proximity of beLeaf™ production decreases the carbon footprint, and emissions are offset by the positive impact of reforestation, which provides oxygen to the atmosphere. In addition, organic waste from the tanning processes are composted and reused as soil nutrients to help protect biodiversity and waterways, and water from tanning is reused for irrigation of the plants. Nova Kaeru has developed its own organic, chrome-free tanning technology based on a blend of biodegradable acrylic resins, polymers, glutaraldehyde, synthetic & vegetable tannins. This more sustainable tanning approach leads to superior, quality materials free of heavy metals that are environmentally safe.
