Leather
Comfort with character
Soft to the touch and supple in use, leather brings natural character to furniture. It is comfortable, durable and shaped by everyday life. With regular care, it can grow more beautiful over the years.
We work with the following leather types when producing our furniture:
Care Instructions - Leather
Leather is used in Hans K furniture, a material that is both durable and adds elegance and comfort. Here are some tips to keep the leather fresh:
Tips for Keeping Leather Fresh
Avoid contact with chemical detergents. Instead, use recommended cleaning products.
Avoid placing the furniture in direct sunlight or too close to a heat source.
Keep your furniture clean from dirt and dust, as these can damage the leather surface. Regularly vacuum with a soft nozzle.
Treat your leather products regularly with products specifically designed for leather.
Genuine Leather
Our genuine leather is a light embossed semi aniline leather produced from the South American hides. The hides are soft and comfortable with an elegant look.
Bonded leather
Bonded leather is a recyclable leather. To form the bonded leather a leather waste is combined with a binder on a fabric. After that the surface is treated with polyurethane with a mat model to preserve looks, scent and feeling. The best solution for a surface treatment of the bonded leather is with products intended for PU and Bycast.
Elmo leather / Elmosoft
Elmosoft is a chrome free, soft and pliable Semi-Aniline leather. Outstanding comfort combined with excellent durability and an extensive shade card, makes it very suitable for the public environment. Compare it with the somewhat sturdier, Elmonordic. Visible insect-bites and scars from healed wounds add to the elegant quality of the leather.
Raw material: Grain leather from Scandinavian cattle. All Elmo leather is dyed through and tested at Elmo’s laboratory.
