Substanz designs at Shanghai design week 2025

Two Substanz designs were featured at PEELSPHERE®’s stand during Shanghai Design Week 2025.

PEELSPHERE® is the developer of AlgaeSkin, a biodegradable and plastic-free bio-polymer derived from algae. With its natural texture and material efficiency, AlgaeSkin belongs to a growing category of circular and low-impact alternatives to conventional synthetics. PEELSPHERE® is among the companies included in the "Guilty Free Materials" section of the Materials First talks, which highlights material innovations advancing more sustainable practices across the design sector.

The featured pieces — Martian 1.0 and Babygirl — were produced using AlgaeSkin, demonstrating its potential in contemporary accessory design.
