이유

Cattle, sheep, goat and pig hides are tanned into leather; exotic leathers come from crocodiles, snakes and ostriches. Hides are not waste — they are a valuable secondary revenue stream that supports slaughter economics.

  • The ingredient list on your own pack — Leather recipes differ by country and change over time
  • Milk, whey, casein, lactose, egg, honey, gelatin, carmine (E120) and shellac (E904) in the list
  • "May contain milk" is an allergen cross-contamination note, not an ingredient — most vegans still buy it

자주 묻는 질문

Is Leather certified vegan?

Certification is separate from the recipe. Many products with no animal ingredients carry no vegan mark because the maker will not rule out shared production lines. Check the pack for a registered vegan trademark, and treat the ingredient list as the primary evidence.

Does the answer change between countries?

Often, yes. The same brand name can use different fats, emulsifiers, colours or whey depending on the plant that made it, so always read the local label rather than an answer written for another market.
