Polestar 3 Offers Eco-Friendly Interior Choices

Polestar 3, the sustainable SUV, offers customers a unique choice of eco-friendly interior materials. These include traceable, chrome-free, Animal welfare-certified Nappa leather, bio-attributed MicroTech vinyl, and Animal welfare-certified wool. The Swedish automaker collaborates with Bridge of Weir, a leading leather producer committed to sustainability and luxury.

Bridge of Weir, supplier of these sustainable materials, sees sustainability and luxury as intertwined. Their Sales Director, James Muirhead, believes leather can be a form of upcycling, giving value to animal skins that would otherwise go to waste. The company uses locally sourced materials, water from a nearby loch, and energy from a thermal plant to reduce its environmental impact.

Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) help Bridge of Weir compare suppliers and debunk myths about leather production. They welcome partners and stakeholders to visit their facilities, promoting transparency in their sustainable production processes. Despite the misconception, Muirhead clarifies that leather is not a byproduct of the meat industry. Instead, it's a co-product, adding value to the entire animal.

Polestar, known for its commitment to sustainability, believes in providing customers with more responsible choices. The Polestar 3, designed with a smaller environmental footprint, reflects this commitment through its interior material options.

Polestar 3's sustainable interior choices, made possible by Bridge of Weir's commitment to eco-friendly leather production, set a new standard for luxury and responsibility in the automotive industry. By offering traceable, chrome-free leather, bio-attributed vinyl, and certified wool, Polestar empowers customers to make more sustainable choices without compromising on quality.
