Vegetable tanning is a traditional production process for leather, passed down from generation to generation.

According to the tradition Mimosa, Quebracho, Chestnut, Oak, Willow, Birch, Catechu bark are used for the vegetable tanning process. These organic substances serve three purposes - to preserve, to strengthen and to give color to the hide. The colors of vegetable tanned leather are natural, with warm tones. Skins are processed in wooden drums and air-dried.

Sustainable development is at the heart of the production cycle. The process requires a precise dyeing and is time consuming. During production skins age constantly, absorbing the traces of time.

Thanks to the symbiosis between traditional equipment and modern tools used in the production process Margot leather is able to comply with European environmental standards.

The hides used for Margot leather are with guarantees for quality, ethics and traceability of production. They arrive from the best farms in France, Switzerland and Norway.

There are many environmental advantages to using vegetable tanned leather for your products including the low environmental impact of the production process and the significant water saving in the production process.

Only 10% of the world produced leather is vegetable tanned.
