Connected to evolution in design and the changes brought by time, Melissa invests in everything related to new materials and advanced production techniques. The goal is to prevent harming the environment.
This is the main reason to use Melfex as the raw material for the jelly shoes. Developed exclusively for Melissa, the Melflex is an enhanced kind of PVC, superior to many other currently available plastic materials. It lasts longer, is more comfortable and smoother to the touch. And most importantly, Melflex is completely reusable and its formula doesn’t include heavy metals.
