Leathers produced with environmentally-conscious processing

Published On: October 1, 2008

Danfield Inc. has developed the first 100-percent environmentally conscious method for processing leather. By utilizing natural colorants, vegetable dyes and waxes, the new EcoHide™ line creates soft, pliable leather without the use of toxic heavy metals. The leather is breathable and easier to shape without pleats or creases, and has a higher flexibility of use than chemically treated hides, according to the manufacturer. Available in a variety of in-stock or custom colors and finishes with short lead times, EdoHide leathers are available directly to the public through the Web site, or to designers, upholsterers and manufacturers through Danfield’s sales office.
