Die Schattenseite industriell hergestellter Wohndekoration

The dark side of industrially manufactured home decoration

Your home is more than just a place—it's a feeling. A retreat where you can breathe deeply. But what if the very things that are supposed to make it cozy are secretly releasing pollutants into your environment?

Many conventional home accessories contain plastics and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that evaporate over time. Paraffin candles, which are derived from petroleum, release soot particles, benzene, and toluene when burned – substances that pollute your indoor air and are associated with health risks. And then there's the invisible problem: microplastics.

Every day, tiny plastic particles from industrial decorative products enter our environment. They don't disappear. They accumulate – in the air, water, food, and even our bodies.

cavaliga: Natural. Mediterranean. Conscious.

This is where cavaliga comes in.

"Cavaliga is more than a brand – it's an attitude." A choice for natural materials, timeless design, and a more conscious life:
• Plaster instead of synthetic resins – for a natural, authentic feel.
• Terracotta instead of plastic coatings – breathable, durable and original (soon available in the shop).
• Vegetable waxes instead of paraffin – olive, rapeseed, coconut and soy wax burn cleaner, without petrochemicals.
• No plastic. Neither in the products nor in the packaging.

cavaliga brings the warmth and lightness of the Mediterranean style into your home – without compromise.

Your home, your decision

Every purchase is a choice. A choice between mass production or craftsmanship. Between synthetic materials or natural purity. Between products that pollute your environment or those that are truly good for you.

cavaliga stands for a world where design and sustainability go hand in hand. For home accessories that not only look beautiful but also feel good – for you, for your home, and for the environment.

Design more consciously with cavaliga.
