We live in an age of great abundance. We’re also waking up to the cost such abundance exacts on planet earth – rising greenhouse gas levels, depletion of natural resources, pollution, trash and species extinction. This knowledge compels us to be sparing with natural resources and use them thoughtfully.

Today consumers rank sustainability as a key factor, giving preference to items that are safe, durable and reusable. In cooperation with world class tanneries, Silvateam has devised Ecotan, a patented, groundbreaking solution for brands looking to meet this new challenge. Our technology delivers the performance consumers expect from contemporary leather without exacting a cost on the planet.
