We've been supplying the automotive upholstery trade for over three decades, building direct relationships with Italian tanneries that go far beyond a standard import arrangement.
What that means for you:
Every hide is sourced directly from Italian tanneries with proven automotive supply credentials. We don't substitute with lower-grade imports or pass off synthetic material as genuine leather. Your builds deserve the real thing and that's all we stock.
We are the only supplier in South Africa with access to supercar-specification nappa leather. This isn't a marketing claim — it's a supply chain reality. If your client drives a supercar and expects factory-level leather quality, we are your only local source.
We've been supplying automotive upholsterers for over 30 years. We understand how workshops operate, what consistent quality means for production, and why reliable supply matters more than occasional good pricing.
Because we manage our supply chain directly with Italian tanneries, we maintain consistent stock of the grades and colours our automotive customers depend on. No surprise discontinuations. No waiting months for a reorder. When you need it, it's here.
We stock full grain, corrected grain, and nappa leather — all Italian origin, all genuine. Each grade suits different automotive applications, from standard passenger vehicle interiors through to supercar-specification builds. We'll advise on the right choice based on your specific job.
