We make the lowest carbon
leather in the world.
Naturally sustainable
As a by-product of the food industry, leather is the original upcycled material, and Muirhead’s 180-plus years of innovation have led us to create the lowest carbon intensity leather in the world. We source locally and reclaim energy from waste and re-use water. We are committed to sustainability.
