"but CACTUS-" cactus """"leather""""" is up to 60% plastic and last time i saw it get tested in a study also contained like 8 federally banned carcinogens.* IT'S ALL FUCKING PLASTIC.

"but tANNING CHEMICALS-" i am holding your face in my hands. your plastic shit production also involves dangerous chemicals. So. Many. Chemicals. and also Continues to release Nasty Shit into the water supply and then landfill after it's made.

you want a textile that doesn't kill an animal? great, we have some! it's FUCKING WOOL. we have literally bred sheep (and goats/alpaca/llamas) for nearly TEN THOUSAND YEARS to harvest their wool in a yearly haircut that leaves them trotting back to the herd in under five minutes with modern tools and a competent shearer. Not shearing these animals is actually detrimental to their welfare!

some of us are allergic to wool though, or can't use it for other reasons. (I will mention though - if you're allergic to sheep's wool specifically I would suggest checking out alpaca fiber if you can, they're different enough many people -though not all- don't have a sensitivity to the material. I have some wonderful dryer balls made of alpaca felt from a local farm and don't have to worry about setting off Mom's allergies with them, and they last for a good while! ours are going on four or five years now.)

look. the cows are going to die. that is a fact of the world we live in right now. do you want their corpses dumped somewhere to rot, or do you want to let someone make use of that massive amount of material to clothes themselves?

*edit: apologies, not 8 but 5 restricted chemicals. study linked here:

All tested materials emitted volatile organic compounds when applied to the thermal desorption screening procedure. Restricted substances were identified in the samples of PUR-coated textile (reference), the similarly constructed materials Desserto®, Appleskin®, and Vegea®, but also in Pinatex®. The PUR-coated textile contained considerable amounts of dimethylformamide (DMFa) and toluene and traces of N,N-dimethylacetamide. In Appleskin®, butanone oxime and traces of DMFa were detected. Desserto® contained the five restricted substances butanone oxime, toluene, free isocyanate, folpet (an organic pesticide), and traces of the plasticizer Diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP). Toluene was detected in the sample of Vegea® and DIBP in that of Pinatex®.

Desserto® and Appleskin® adopt this principle. A part of PUR is replaced by agricultural by-products, which are used as fillers. A detailed analysis of the origin of the natural component and its content in relation to the bulk of the material was not possible, however. Nevertheless, the bulk of the materials remains to consist of polyurethane.

Figure 5 shows impressively the performance of the different materials in comparison to the references. Alternative materials have specific advantages, but none of the materials combines high mechanical strength and flex resistance with high water vapor permeability as in the case of leather. (note: WVP and WVA refer to Water Vapor Permeability and Water Vapor Absorption respectively)

I love leather and I love fur and I don’t mind arguing about it.

Antimony Price Trend 2025: What’s Keeping the Market Balanced This Year?

The Antimony prices trend in 2025 is showing a mix of steadiness and slight volatility, depending on the region and industrial activity. Antimony is not one of those materials people talk about every day, but it plays a crucial role in several important industries. It’s mainly used as a flame retardant in plastics, textiles, and electronics, and also in lead-acid batteries, which are still heavily used around the world despite the rise of lithium-based alternatives.

👉 👉 👉 Please Submit Your Query for Antimony Price Trend, forecast and market analysis: https://www.price-watch.ai/contact/

As we moved into 2025, antimony prices began with a relatively firm tone. This was largely due to limited mining activity and continued demand from the flame retardant and battery sectors. Most of the global supply comes from China, and the country’s environmental controls and export policies always have a direct effect on global pricing. So when Chinese mining slows down or there’s a restriction in shipments, prices tend to jump a little across the board.

At the same time, geopolitical developments and shipping delays also played a part earlier this year. Some buyers, especially in the U.S. and Europe, tried to stock up due to uncertainty, which added a bit of pressure on prices. But overall, 2025 is not looking like a year of wild swings—at least not so far. Prices are relatively stable, but still sensitive to supply-side changes.

The global antimony market is relatively small in terms of volume compared to other metals, but it holds strong value due to its specific uses. Aside from flame retardants and batteries, antimony compounds are also used in semiconductors, pigments, ceramics, and glass manufacturing. However, the real price support still comes from lead-acid battery demand and fire safety regulations, both of which are not expected to go away anytime soon.

From a forecast angle, demand is expected to grow slowly but steadily. Some growth is also coming from new research around antimony’s use in renewable energy storage technologies. If those experiments become mainstream, antimony demand could spike in the future. But for 2025, the growth is mostly being driven by traditional industries that rely on fire-resistant materials and batteries.

In terms of market size and segmentation, the Asia-Pacific region dominates both consumption and production. China, in particular, is the biggest player by far—not just in mining but also in processing and exporting. Other countries like Russia, Bolivia, and Tajikistan also mine antimony, but they play a smaller role. On the consumption side, North America and Europe remain strong due to strict building codes and fire safety standards that require flame-retardant materials in homes, offices, and factories.

Some of the major players in the global antimony market include Hunan Gold Corporation, Mandalay Resources, United States Antimony Corporation, and Consolidated Murchison Mine. These companies influence price levels through their output and operational decisions. If any of them scale back production due to costs or regulations, it has a noticeable effect on supply.

In terms of opportunities, one big one lies in antimony recycling. Since it's used in batteries and electronics, there’s a chance to recover and reuse a good amount of antimony instead of relying only on mining. Some companies are already investing in this space, which could improve supply stability and help lower the carbon footprint of the antimony supply chain.

For now, the outlook for the rest of 2025 suggests a fairly balanced market. Prices may move slightly higher if supply disruptions happen or if demand picks up faster than expected. But there's also enough supply in storage and production pipelines to prevent any dramatic spikes. Traders and manufacturers are watching Chinese export trends closely, as any policy change there tends to ripple through the entire global market.

So, in short, 2025 is a year of cautious stability for antimony. It’s not grabbing headlines like lithium or copper, but it continues to serve industries that can’t work without it. For buyers, producers, and users, the main focus will be on maintaining supply chains and watching global production signals for any early signs of change.
