La nuova carta di credito Apple è in titanio, preziosa. Il contatto con la pelle va evitato, può risultare dannoso; quindi niente borsette, portafogli e simili, al pari di magneti e denim.
Allora, agli animalisti e agli ambientalisti si aggiunge l'high-tech nel rifiuto del vecchio, inquinante, crudele materiale.
Goretex, Lycra, poliuretano, rigenerato da cellule vive, prodotti vegetali, riciclato assediano e insidiano appeal nonché business del residuo animale. Facile che a breve esca la messa a punto di un'alternativa altamente tecnologica, magari da parte di un colosso informatico.
Il mercato sembra anticiparlo.
Gli americani stanno mangiando più carne rossa. Eppure il sottoprodotto, tradizionalmente impiegato per abbigliamento e accessori, va accumulandosi nei macelli e nei magazzini, nessuno lo compra. La domanda pare svanita.
I prezzi del grezzo sono crollati. All'eccesso di offerta si contrappone l'assenza di richiesta, il consumo ha perso interesse, preferisce risparmiare, agevolare la sostenibilità, indossare il casual.
Una volta dei sottoprodotti della macellazione il manto di un bovino raggiungeva persino il 50% del valore complessivo, adesso sta sul 5%. Viene buttata in discarica. Nel passato è già successo. Questa però sembra l'ultima volta. Si salva ancora l'alta qualità, il lusso, cioè 1/5 scarso del totale, peraltro in contrazione, quasi una boutique per poche, mature super-ricche.
Tragedia mondiale, doppia per commercianti e conciatori, i cui profitti sono sempre stati enormi, troppo. Grande pure la possibilità di evasione fiscale, quando si compra a peso e si vende a superficie.
Fast-fashion, athleisure vincono senza componenti animali, le imitazioni dell'aspetto epidermico sono perfette, la traspirazione garantita. Bucce di frutta e riutilizzi avanzano.
Scarpe, pelletteria, vestiario hanno segnato negli Stati Uniti +54% di vendite nel primo semestre 2019. Le calzature in pelle animale sono rovinosamente cadute.
Gli interni auto fatti di pellame, che consentiva ricarichi sproporzionati a danno di una clientela ingenua, hanno esaurito un boom ultra-decennale.
I giovani voltano le spalle, ultimo atto di una storia 'preistorica'.
Segnali di smantellamento in Italia, Paese con grossa struttura conciaria, ove fondi di investimento e griffe francesi assorbono le aziende trasformatrici migliori. Il credito del settore presso opinione pubblica e politica scema. Spreco di acqua, sostanze chimiche nocive (cromo, ftalati etc), discariche straboccanti, inquinamento idrico, veleni sotterrati scorrettamente, commistioni con la malavita nel risanamento ambientale( camorra napoletana), ridotta trasparenza commerciale, tecnologia arretrata se non primordiale costituiscono accuse e sospetti, da cui sarà difficile e lungo sottrarsi.
La rivoluzione informatica, inarrestabile, si accinge a cancellare le residue attività obsolete.
Apple titanium credit card repels animal leather
The new Apple credit card is titanium, precious. Leather contact should be avoided, can be harmful; so no handbags, wallets and the like, like magnets and denim.
Then, to animalists and environmentalists is added the high-tech in the rejection of the old, polluting, cruel material.
Goretex, Lycra, polyurethane, regenerated from living cells, plant products, recycled besieging and undermining appeal as well as business of animal residue. The development of a high-tech alternative, perhaps by a computer giant, jumps out in the short term.
The market seems to anticipate it.
Americans are eating more red meat. Yet the by-product, traditionally used for clothing and accessories, is accumulating in slaughterhouses and warehouses, nobody buys it. The request seems to have vanished.
Raw hides and skins prices collapsed. The excess of supply is opposed to the absence of demand, consumer has lost interest and prefers to save money, facilitate sustainability, wear casual.
Once among the by-products of slaughter the hide even reached 50% of the total value, now it is about 5%. It is thrown into the landfill. In the past it has already happened. But this seems like the last time. The high quality, the luxury is still saved, that is 1/5 of the total, however in contraction, as a boutique for a few, super-rich mature women.
It's a world problem, double for traders and tanners, whose profits have always been enormous, too much. Great is also the possibility of tax evasion, when they buy by weight and sell on the surface.
Fast-fashion, athleisure win without animal components, the imitations of the epidermic aspect are perfect, perspiration guaranteed. Fruit peels and reuses advance.
Shoes, leather goods, clothing marked sales in the United States + 54% in the first half of 2019. Animal leather shoes have fallen ruinously.

Car interiors made of leather, which allowed disproportionate mark-ups to the detriment of a naive clientele, have exhausted an ultra-decade boom.
Young people turn their backs, the last act of a 'prehistoric' story.
Dismantling signals in Italy, a country with a large tanning structure, where investment funds and French brands absorb the best processing companies. The credit of the sector to public opinion and politicians lowers. Waste of water, harmful chemicals (chromium, phthalates etc.), overflowing dumps, water pollution, incorrectly buried poisons, mingling with the crime in environmental business (Neapolitan camorra), poor commercial transparency, backward if not primordial technology constitute accusations and suspicions, from which it will be difficult and long to escape.
The unstoppable informatics revolution is about to erase the remaining obsolete activities.
