At Sabant, we are always pushing the boundaries of sustainable innovation. Our commitment to creating high-quality, eco-friendly materials has led us to exciting new ventures, one of which is the creation of Beer Skin™, our revolutionary plant-based leather made from barley malt waste. Today, we are thrilled to share a special story that highlights our dedication to innovation and sustainability: the gifting of a unique football made from Beer Skin™ to our esteemed investor, Marko Pjaca.

Marko Pjaca's Special Gift

Marko Pjaca, a celebrated footballer and proud investor in Sabant, recently made headlines with his return to GNK Dinamo Zagreb. To celebrate this momentous occasion, we wanted to present him with a gift that embodies our core values of sustainability and innovation. What better way to honor a football legend than with a football crafted from our very own Beer Skin™?

The football, a symbol of our innovative spirit, was designed to showcase the versatility and quality of Beer Skin™. This unique material, made from barley malt waste—a byproduct of beer production—demonstrates how we can turn waste into something beautiful and functional. It’s a perfect blend of Marko’s passion for football and our commitment to sustainable practices.

Why Beer Skin™?

Beer Skin™ is the result of our relentless pursuit of sustainable materials that do not compromise on quality or aesthetics. This plant-based leather is crafted using barley malt waste, which would otherwise go unused. By repurposing this byproduct, we reduce waste and create a high-quality material that can be used in various industries, from fashion to sports equipment.

The process of creating Beer Skin™ involves local processing of the barley malt waste, which is then transformed into exclusive, sustainable leather in our master factory in Italy. The result is a material that is not only eco-friendly but also incredibly versatile and durable.

The Significance of the Gift

Gifting a football made from Beer Skin™ to Marko Pjaca is more than just a gesture of appreciation. It symbolizes the intersection of tradition and innovation, where the love for football meets cutting-edge sustainable technology. This unique gift is a testament to our belief that sustainability can go hand in hand with excellence and creativity.

Marko’s involvement with Sabant goes beyond just being an investor. His support and belief in our mission have been instrumental in our journey. By presenting him with this one-of-a-kind football, we celebrate not only his achievements but also our shared commitment to making a positive impact on the world.

Future Innovations

At Sabant, we are constantly exploring new ways to expand the potential of sustainable materials. While Beer Skin™ is currently our flagship product, we are excited about the future innovations that lie ahead. We are already working on new lines of plant-based leather made from other byproducts of the alcohol industry, and we continue to collaborate with creative minds to develop innovative design solutions.

Our recent collaboration with designer Mirjam Krajina on a limited edition collection of Beer Skin™ bags is just the beginning. We have more exciting projects in the pipeline, and we are committed to pushing the boundaries of what sustainable materials can achieve.
