Frequently Asked Questions
Want to know what it's like to work with us? Here you can find out everything you need to know about our processes and opportunities. Whether you want to work with us as a farmer or abattoir partner, order samples or leather products - we explain step by step how you can become part of our sustainable supply chain and how we work together on projects.
Agriculture
Do you have animals on your farm and would like to process their hides? Then you have several options:
You can sell the hides to us and we will process them into leather which we sell on to our customers. We require that your farm is organic, biodynamic or regenerative and that your animals are fed on grass-based feed.
We can process the hides into a hair-on product or leather (products).
Important to know: The hides must be salted within 24 hours after slaughter and laid out to drain in a cool, dry place. It can be folded and stored after 7-10 days. Well preserved and cooled hides can be stored for 6 to 9 months before being sent for tanning.
If you would like to work with us, please get in touch.
Slaughterhouse
We are already working with a number of slaugherhouses and mobile abattoir units who are interested in making the hides available for regional use. We look forward to new companies joining us. There are two ways of working together:
Do you have the space and facilities to preserve and store the hides yourself? We will pay you a fair price for the hide and the time you need to preserve it.
You do not have a storage facility for hides or skins? We will work with you to see if we can collect the hides from you and take them to a collection centre.
