Pull up tidy up

This pull up leather couch has seen a lot of family activity over the years and was in need of an overall overhaul. Being a type of unfinished leather, it had accumulated a lot of oil in the head and armrest areas. Once the oil had been extracted, we converted it to a finished leather. [...]

Mega Makeover Month

September has come and gone and we recorded our second best month ever! At times our floor space was so crammed with projects that it was like a maze to get from A to B through a pathway of gaps between couches! Not only were we busy in the factory, but you DIYers were busy [...]

Largest Antique Restoration (So Far)

No job is too big...It just takes longer to do! Some projects make more sense to do on site as they could get damaged in transport anyhow which defeats the purpose of taking them back to the factory.

Bold Repairs... When your products perform

Before I developed Leatha Menda and Super Seal Filler, I wouldn't attempt repairs as extensive as this. I just didn't have the confidence that the repair, although virtually invisible, would last. 5 years on and these two products have revolutionised repair possibilities for leather technicians all around the globe. If nothing else, they've helped decrease [...]
