We select our leathers based on their individual properties and the intended application. Leather lasts a long time, ages well and is easy to care for and repair.

LWG aims to improve the environmental impact of the leather industry by assessing and certifying leather manufacturers. The audit protocol covers energy use, waste, water use and chemicals, as well as traceability.
