our story
The beauty of being part of a privately owned company is that you can make decisions about being corporately and socially responsible.
As such, we have peace of mind that we have aligned ourselves with a product that is natural.
In Italy the waste water from leather tanning cannot re-enter the environment until it has been tested as pure.
Therefore these strict standards need to be adhered to, and we are confident we can proceed knowing our business is not harming the environment.
We are a New Zealand owned and operated company – we hire Kiwis and contribute to the local economy.
In addition, our profits do not go off-shore, as is the case with many industries.
Not only this, but we are leather specialists, our focus is entirely the best quality and the best service.
