Embracing sustainability as way forward, EcoDomo the maker of sustainable leather interior surfaces recently introduces their innovative and all new recycled-leather surface panel for responsible interior d\u00e9cor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A material that brings the richness of leather to architectural surfaces while giving discarded leather a new life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
EcoDomo is addressing that question with its Recycled Leather Veneer (RLV\u2122)<\/strong>\u2014a surface material that transforms recycled leather into a versatile finish for furniture, cabinetry and architectural interiors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Designed as an alternative to traditional wood veneer, EcoDomo\u2019s recycled leather veneer is made from full-grain vegetable-tanned leather that is pulverised, blended with natural latex and recycled into veneer sheets<\/strong>. The resulting material is approximately 0.8 mm thick and can be supplied in sheets up to 48 \u00d7 96 inches, with custom sizes available up to 48 \u00d7 144 inches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to the company, this new panel gives fabricators a leather-look, leather-feel surface that works with the same equipment, adhesives, and edgebanding processes already in use on standard panel lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cUniversal acceptance was the whole design goal,\u201d said Bernice Lord, CEO of EcoDomo. \u201cFabricators shouldn’t have to retool their shop to specify a better material. Our recycled-leather panel drops into the same production line as melamine, but gives designers a genuinely sustainable, tactile leather surface instead.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The new panel pairs with EcoDomo’s Recycled Leather Veneer (RLV) Color-Matched Edgeband to complete exposed edges in a seamless, fully coordinated leather finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cHaving a color-matched edgeband and a panel that behaves like the materials I already run means I don’t have to compromise on sustainability or on workflow,\u201d said Wendy Scott, principal at Timeless Closets & Cabinetry. \u201cIt’s a genuine drop-in upgrade.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Innovative product details:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Leather, reworked as a surface<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Rather than treating leather purely as an upholstery material, EcoDomo positions RLV\u2122 as a universal surfacing solution. The veneer can be laminated onto a variety of substrates and used across both horizontal and vertical applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Its applications range from doors, kitchen and closet cabinetry to countertops, wall panels, shelving, columns, stair risers and ceiling panels<\/strong>. This opens up opportunities for designers to introduce the tactile character of leather into spaces where wood veneer or other decorative surfaces would traditionally be specified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The material is available in an extensive selection of colours and textures, including finishes inspired by Buffalo, Shagreen, Walrus and Crocodile<\/strong> surfaces. From understated neutrals to deeper contemporary tones, the collection is designed to offer designers considerable freedom in developing coordinated interior schemes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Built for demanding interiors<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Sustainability is only part of the proposition. EcoDomo has developed a protective resin top coat that provides resistance to staining, wear and water<\/strong>, making the material suitable for applications that demand greater durability than conventional decorative leather surfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The company\u2019s technical information also lists resistance testing against chemicals including acetic acid, isopropyl alcohol, ammonia, bleach and olive oil, with no change reported after the specified 24-hour surface-attack test. The material has also passed the ISO 11925 single-flame-source test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A different approach to circular materiality<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n What makes EcoDomo\u2019s proposition particularly relevant to today\u2019s interiors is the way it combines material recovery with design flexibility<\/strong>. Instead of presenting recycled material as a compromise, RLV\u2122 is positioned as a premium decorative surface in its own right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the woodworking, furniture and interior-design industries, this points towards a broader shift in surface design\u2014one where reclaimed and recycled materials are not simply alternatives to conventional finishes, but become sources of new textures, tactile experiences and visual identities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n EcoDomo\u2019s recycled-leather veneer demonstrates how a familiar material can be re-engineered for a new role. Leather moves from upholstery and accessories onto panels, cabinetry and architectural surfaces, creating another route for designers seeking materials that balance craftsmanship, performance and resource-conscious design<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" EcoDomo\u2019s Recycled Leather Veneer transforms recycled leather into a durable, versatile surface for cabinetry, furniture and architectural interiors, combining tactile luxury with a more resource-conscious material approach.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1963,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,4,524],"tags":[156,14,22,562,40,50,563,82],"class_list":["post-1962","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured-news","category-wood-design-news","category-products-technology","tag-automation","tag-circular-economy","tag-design","tag-ecodomo","tag-furniture-and-accessories","tag-interior","tag-recycled-leather-surface-panels","tag-sustainability"],"acf":[],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-52-Topaz-Gigapixel-4x-scale_d-scaled.jpg",2560,2560,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-52-Topaz-Gigapixel-4x-scale_d-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-52-Topaz-Gigapixel-4x-scale_d-300x300.jpg",300,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-52-Topaz-Gigapixel-4x-scale_d-768x768.jpg",640,640,true],"large":["https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-52-Topaz-Gigapixel-4x-scale_d-1024x1024.jpg",640,640,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-52-Topaz-Gigapixel-4x-scale_d-1536x1536.jpg",1536,1536,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-52-Topaz-Gigapixel-4x-scale_d-2048x2048.jpg",2048,2048,true],"covernews-featured":["https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-52-Topaz-Gigapixel-4x-scale_d-1024x1024.jpg",1024,1024,true],"covernews-medium":["https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-52-Topaz-Gigapixel-4x-scale_d-540x340.jpg",540,340,true]},"author_info":{"display_name":"PDNews Desk","author_link":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/?author=1"},"category_info":"Featured News<\/a> News<\/a> Products & Technology<\/a>","tag_info":"Products & Technology","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1962","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1962"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1962\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1966,"href":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1962\/revisions\/1966"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1963"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1962"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1962"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/panelanddesign.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1962"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
