Bonding

The formulas of our in-house water-based glues are developed based on the nature of the textile and hide thickness. Bonding is done consistently, per kilometre. Depending on the expected result, we take various factors into account such as pressure, temperature and drying time.

We can therefore provide our customers with many kinds of canvasses including our bestsellers – the Light Canvas and the Strong Canvas. A line entirely designed for clothing and shoes such as our Denim, organza, embossed organza, silk, shoe, Mélissa and Galucha canvasses as well as 3 smocking references, Wools, Jacquard, etc…

Laminating

We can laminate sheep, goat and bovine leather or exotic leather such as crocodile, python, etc. or even fur such as mink, square pelts, skin-out fur pelts, shagreen, fish leather, etc. This stage is after the splitting stage. This is when leather and a fabric are perfectly combined. The hides are laid on a conveyor belt rotated by a cylinder at a set temperature.
After the lamination is finished, the hides are taken to dry before being dyed. Then they’re returned to us. Next, the hides go through the cylinder grainer called "satigrain"; this stage brings out the selection by masking the pique wool, and adjustments are made based on the item.
After this, the hides are sent off for the finishing process and come back to us for currying. We send them through our staking machine to recover leather shrinkage during the river stage (we can recover up to 10 cm).

Next is the smoothing stage to make the finished leather shine whether it’s stretch or classic leather. We trim them again with electric scissors carefully following the contours of the hide.
