A galaxy of wonder, captured at the edge—where sustainability meets beauty

At the Hong Kong APLF, D&A Group made its debut with Starry Wonder, an industry-first special effect edge paint—and won “the Best Innovation in Leather Award.” This recognition highlights the power of D&A Edge Polymer’s innovation and its commitment to driving sustainable progress in the leather industry.



Innovation Takes the Spotlight
APLF is one of the most influential international exhibitions for the leather and fashion industries, and its “ Best of APLF Awards” honors exhibitors for excellence in both design and quality. With breakthrough technology and a striking visual aesthetic, Starry Wonder instantly stood out as a standout focus of the show.

Celestial Glow That Shifts With Every Angle
Starry Wonder brings the magic of a twinkling night sky into edge finishing. As the viewing angle changes, it reveals a deep, dazzling, multi-chromatic shimmer—infusing leather products with a unique, living soul.

Same Magic, Lighter Footprint
Starry Wonder is also available in BIO-Circul®, D&A’s industry-first bio-based edge paint series. By replacing traditional petrochemical ingredients with bio-based raw materials, BIO-Circul® helps significantly reduce carbon footprint—while maintaining excellent adhesion, flexibility, and color performance.

Innovation by Choice. Responsibility by Design
Winning at APLF is a strong testament to D&A Edge Polymer’s years of R&D and its drive to push beyond boundaries. From pioneering special effect edge paints to expanding the eco-friendly BIO-Circul® range, D&A continues to blend aesthetics, performance, and sustainability into edge finishing.
Looking ahead, we will keep redefining edge paint through innovation—so every leather piece can move hearts and help protect the world we live in.
