Leather specifications

Our minimum order is 1,000 square feet, which is about 10,000 dm². That applies to a single article and colour. For a first trial we can usually work below that, so ask before you assume the answer is no.

From 1.0 to 3.4 mm. Aviation work usually sits between 0.9 and 1.2 mm, automotive between 1.1 and 1.5 mm, upholstery between 1.2 and 1.6 mm, and belt leather between 2.4 and 3.4 mm.

Yes. We ship finished and stocked leather to the USA, Canada and Mexico, and delivery takes days rather than months. We handle the import into the United States ourselves, so you buy leather instead of managing a cross border shipment.

Yes. That is a separate service from our own production. If you already buy from a Mexican tannery, or you want to, we bring the leather into the United States and deliver it to your plant. You deal with one supplier in your own time zone instead of a customs process.

We inspect 100% of every shipment, sheet by sheet, before it leaves. Colour is run against a retained standard and the recipe is held for repeat orders, so a resupply matches the first order rather than approximating it.

Yes. We run our own tannery in Mexico and we also import for clients in the United States. Owning the tannery means we control the article from the raw hide, and importing means we can still supply when a programme needs more volume than one plant should carry.

Yes. Tell us the market, the article and the thickness you are working to and we will send samples with the specification in writing so your engineering or development group can review both together.
