Where our Leather Comes From

We use full grain cowhide leather sourced from the most reputable tanneries in Europe, South America, South Africa and New Zealand. Our supplier uses tanneries that have for many years identified the environment as a major responsibility of their production. Leather is a by product of the food industry and as such is recycled into fine products for furniture, clothing and footwear industries.

 

These tanneries are certified to the following standards:

ISO 9001 – products are specified by the quality system ICEC an organisation specialising in the leather industry. 

E-Commerce quality mark – a certification testifying to truth in product information.

UNIC – products can testify to the authenticity of “genuine leather” in order to guarantee the quality to the end user.

Our Supplier’s Code of conduct – The awareness that sustainable development is a global and strategic aim together with engagement with the environment has led to a code of conduct being signed by our supplier and partners which includes social solidarity, professionalism, environment safety in the workplace and quality. 

Our supplier is committed to using tanneries that have an 

Environmental commitment for new technologies and are constantly being developed to help reduce the effects that the leather industry has on the environment. These include:
