Authentic Material is multiplying recycled material projects in the service of circular creativity in the luxury industries. Founded in 2016 in Toulouse by Vincent Menny and integrated in early 2022 into LVMH’s House of Start-ups at Station F, the company gives a second life to natural materials, destined for destruction. The company relies on a scientific innovation portfolio, close to alchemy.
The sourcing
The raw materials come from the untapped deposits – surplus, stock or production scraps – of the luxury houses that are also Authentic Material’s clients. Exclusively of natural origin, the materials are animal (leather, horn, wool, silk, cashmere), vegetable (wood, flower, fruit) or mineral (shell, porcelain, fine stone).
