Description

Evida is part of the Skai Collection, combining the look and feel of leather with a more sustainable material construction. Its surface features a richly varied leather grain and a pleasant handle, making it suitable for a wide range of upholstery and covering applications.

Developed with sustainability in mind, Evida is made from approximately 50% renewable raw materials, 30% natural-based raw materials and 20% crude-oil-based raw materials. This means more than 80% of the components are natural and renewable, helping to reduce the ecological footprint. It is also phthalate-free, produced and finished in Germany, and manufactured using 100% CO₂-neutral energy from renewable sources.

With strong durability, easy maintenance and excellent performance properties, Evida is particularly suited to public areas, hospitality, residential and healthcare environments, including medical and physiotherapy couches.
