By integrating a sustainable mindset and solid Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) data, we make certain that our processes and the products we create for you reflect a strong commitment to the environment. Actively exploring and implementing bio-based tanning solutions, lightweight value propositions, as well as Glutaraldehyde-free leather, we are reducing not only our carbon footprint but also yours, as we jointly embrace eco-friendly practices. Being an industry leader in sustainability, we also introduced the pioneering ‘Zero Waste Leather’ concept with 100% circular manufacturing, eliminating all forms of waste through upcycling, recycling, and energy recovery.
As part of ‘Zero Waste Leather’ we recently launched ‘Sec0nda Vita’ next-generation premium bonded leather, a new and unprecedented upcycling proposition based on by-products from the automotive leather supply chain. For us, ‘made by nature and crafted for luxury’ means authentic and durable material solutions. We generate products designed to not only last but age gracefully, providing you with superior, timeless value.
