OUR LEATHER
At NUANCA we are committed to selecting the best quality materials that we can get our hands on. Sensitive textures that blend perfectly for a unique product experience.
Process of Tanning
Overall, vegetable tanning is a time-consuming process that can take several weeks to complete.
However, it is an environmentally-friendly and sustainable method of tanning leather, as it uses natural materials and avoids the use of harmful chemicals. The resulting leather is strong, durable, and has a unique character and patina that develops over time.
Why we choose Vegetable Tanned Leather?
Research has shown that a significant part of the environmental impact of leather occurs in the manufacturing process.
Therefore, it is not only the chemicals used in the tanning process that should determine how eco-friendly the leather is. Accordingly, water, wastewater, air emissions and energy use are responsibly managed at our tanneries.
