You bring the craft, we bring the tech

The leather industry is embarking on an exciting new era; one where craftmanship goes hand in hand with niche innovation. This will enable tanneries to raise the bar – on quality, on transparency. The effects of this ripple on, and are felt by the entire supply chain.
