Muirhead Seat Cover Service: Simplifying Your Supply Chain, Seamlessly

As the world’s most trusted leather supplier for aviation and rail, we bring unparalleled expertise in crafting durable, high-quality leather seat covers. Most manufacturers today are optimised for fabric and synthetic materials. However, leather requires specialised processes to achieve the highest standards in production, performance, lead times and cost efficiency. That’s where we come in. 

And that’s just the beginning. Discover more about our Muirhead Seat Cover Service.
