Obtained from the hardening of casein, galalith is in high demand for the production of top quality buttons, inlays and restorations, jewellery, rosaries, pens, handles for knives, accessories for fashion industry and parts for musical instruments (picks, pickguard, tuning pegs, guitar finishes, organ and piano keys).
Thanks to its naturalness, galalith is warm to touch and reproduces in an excellent way the materials proceeding from protected animals like horn, mother of pearl, ivory, tortoise and coral keeping unvaried most of their original features including consistency, strength, durability and flexibility.
Our company has always fought in favour of sustainability, recreating natural products very similar to the original ones and involving lower costs in both environmental and economic terms.
Despite the global trade ban on ivory established in 1989, every year around 20,000 African elephants are killed for their tusks (based on the latest facts assembled by WWF Italia).
Gremolith Italia offers and promotes galalith as one of the most valid alternatives to ivory, with excellent result in terms of appearance and resistance of the finished product.
The illegal market of turtle products trade has led to a rapid decrease in these reptiles, whose shell is in great demand for commercial purposes.
To protect the environment and the species, our galalith tortoise alternative perfectly reproduces the textures and nuances of this natural product.
Gremolith Italia also produces natural alternatives to horns, mother of pearl, jade and coral available in sheets, blanks and rods.
