ICTYOS
ICTYOS combines the expertise of a traditional French tannery with an environmentally responsible approach, revolutionizing the transformation of fish skins from the food industry into high-quality marine leather. With a commitment to excellence, ICTYOS ensures the highest standards for their sea leathers. They meticulously handpick the finest fish skins from trusted French agri-food partners, guaranteeing the quality and origin of their materials. To maintain supply chain transparency, ICTYOS collaborates with a network of local partners, establishing a short circuit that reduces their carbon footprint. By doing so, they prioritize sustainability and minimize environmental impact.
Importantly, ICTYOS upholds ethical practices by avoiding any increase in fishing activities. Instead, they adopt an upcycling approach, intelligently utilizing available resources. ICTYOS further demonstrates their eco-conscious approach by favoring vegetable tannins derived from leaves, roots, or fruits. This choice minimizes the impact of deforestation and aligns with their commitment to sustainable sourcing. Through the combination of traditional craftsmanship, responsible sourcing, and innovative processes, ICTYOS sets a new standard in the production of marine leather.
Their dedication to quality, traceability, and environmental consciousness positions them as a leader in the industry, offering customers a premium, eco-friendly alternative.
