Taurus
This beautiful cow leather has been developed especially for seating furniture. Its origin is South America. The wide pampas allow the buffalos’ skin to developing a very robust surface. Taurus leather is about 1,3-1,5 mm thick.
Taurus leather has been tanned with chromium salts. After this process, the leather is dyed with aniline dyes. Then we put a covering of colour pigments on top. The pigments provide a nice even colour. A leather pattern is pressed into the surface to achieve a uniform appearance. The transparent top finish gives the leather a strong wear layer. Finally, the walk-vat-treatment makes the leather extra smooth. This creates the wonderfully soft grip and makes the leather particularly suitable for various interior applications. Due to the natural elasticity of the leather, wrinkling cannot be avoided and are no reason for complaints.
You can identify Taurus leather on the following typical and unique features:
- Natural appearance, typical characteristics of leather remain visible and touchable: insect bites, scars and other minor imperfections.
- Warm, solid colours
- Wide colour palette
- Strong wear layer
- Soft grip
To maintain the characteristics of the leather we advise you to take the following basic rules:
- Do not place your furniture in direct sunlight
- Provide sufficient space between the radiator and furniture
- Do not let your pet sit or lie on your furniture
- Ensure a pleasant indoor climate: humidity ideally 45-55%
