Olivenleder® is good for man and the environment

We have got the solution! A vegetable tanning agent, completely free from harmful substances, for producing beautiful, healthy leather. Any kind of leather. Proven for years. In any colour. Completely biodegradable. Rather very good.

Olivenleder® means luxury

We believe that true luxury unfolds when superior craftsmanship meets responsibility. Our patented procedure has the potential to lead global leather production to a responsible future which is sustainable and healthy for man and the environment. This is exactly what we aim for.

Olivenleder® is beautiful

To avoid misunderstandings: We never aimed to make better leather. Leather from conventional production is nice and good. The unrivalled beauty of Olivenleder, however, results from the fact that it is not inferior to traditional leather despite being produced with the help of a tanning agent

• which already exists as a by-product of Mediterranean olive harvest,
• whose production reduces the emission of carbon dioxide as the leaves are no longer burned,
• which poses no health hazard whatsoever,
• which even was awarded the Dermatest seal “EXCELLENT”,
• which is USDA's BioPreferred 100% biobased,
• which could be sampled without any harm,
• which can be produced in almost any amount,
• whose production does not harm anyone,
• which requires neither agricultural land nor food!

Thus the focus is not on any particular property of the finished leather but on the special feeling of treating oneself to environmentally conscious behaviour!
