SUPPLIERS
We represent a select group of tanneries producing chrome, vegetable tanned, metal free and alternative tannages. Several offer stock service programmes should samples be required urgently or minimums hard to commit to. We also represent webbing and fabric manufacturers, both bespoke and stock service, as well as producers of alternative non leather materials. Please contact us to schedule a presentation.
SUSTAINABILITY
All tanneries that we represent are LWG Audited, sourcing hides from high welfare farming. All hides are bi products of the meat and dairy farming industries. Tanning converts hides into a durable, BioSource luxury product. We are proud of our suppliers’ multiple certifications and capabilities which include carbon neutral and fully traceable articles. The fabric and webbing companies that we represent also feature sustainable collections.

Inspection plans are tailored to specific customer requirements for each article concerned and we have teams located on the ground in Italy, Germany and Spain. If this could be of interest, please contact us.
