Natur is a heavyweight semi aniline leather, produced on premium European cowhide by one of Italy’s finest and most respected tanneries.
The subtle two-tone effect of Natur gives the finished product an understated appearance, which is complemented by the supple texture. As a semi aniline leather, Natur will exhibit a natural grain, as well as marks, scars and other hallmarks of natural leather.
Natur is very tolerant to soiling and spillage and is an ideal selection for quality furnishings in any residential or commercial application.
All colours are in stock in our Australian warehouse and available for immediate off-the-shelf delivery.
Custom colours are available on request.
Natur is produced by one of the world’s leading tanners, Rino Mastrotto – an ISO 14001 Certified company. This ISO Standard recognises organisations that are committed to environmental management and operate in an environmentally sustainable manner.
The tannery also carries the ISO 9001 Quality Certification. Their assurance of environmental responsibility extends to a full annual Environmental Impact Audit which accompanies their annual financial statements. This unique practice set the global benchmark for transparency in the tanning industry. The Rino Mastrotto Group utilises some of the most advanced waste management techniques in the industry, with all tannery wastage (liquid, gas and solid) treated to European Standards on-site and again at a shared off-site facility. Natur is produced using only water-based dyes.
The tannery is a Gold rated member of the Leather Working Group which is the leading industry organisation focused on sustainable and responsible leather production.
Natur will require care and maintenance to continually offer the lasting beauty and comfort that only leather can provide.
Protect from direct sunlight, as prolonged exposure may cause the leather to fade over time.
Protect leather from direct heat sources and heating vents.
Vacuum regularly using soft brush attachments to remove dust & grit.
Remove spills by blotting with a soft & absorbent colourfast cloth.
We recommend the use of Leather Master or Complete Leathercare products to spot clean and to revitalise your leather.
Do not use detergents, solvents or abrasive cleaners. Do not dry clean or machine wash.
Deterioration arising from incorrect or inadequate maintenance are not considered faults in the leather and will void any warranty.
