Biotex LLC is the developer and manufacturer of AppleSkin — a premium innovative material made from apple processing residues. Soft to the touch and naturally scented with baked apple, it is durable (>80,000 Martindale cycles) and strong (410 N). Suitable for fashion, furniture upholstery, and interiors, including hotel corridors, as it can be produced non-flammable.

AppleSkin can be made in any Pantone color, texture, or custom logo pattern. It is a humane, safe, and sustainable alternative to animal leather with high plant content and a stable natural aroma.
There are no true analogues worldwide: AppleSkin is made from apple pomace, up to three times more affordable than European materials, and already used by brands for shoes, bags, wall panels, furniture, and EV interiors.

Biotex LLC, a Skolkovo resident, is a Moscow Innovator 2024 winner and took 2nd place at the 3rd Susong Cup Future Industry Technology Innovation Competition – BRICS Track, Xiamen, China.
