The choice of leather factory significantly impacts the quality of our products. Many people assume that only Italian leather crafts are of the highest quality. While it’s true that many famous and classic leathers come from Italy, it doesn’t mean that other countries are incapable of producing similar craftsmanship, especially with the ongoing advancements in China’s manufacturing techniques. Choosing local Chinese leather suppliers allows us to save significantly on both production time and costs.
Tang has always insisted on working with at least ten fixed leather factory suppliers. Each of these factories has been carefully chosen after thorough on-site inspections and verifications. They may not be the largest in China, but they meet environmental standards and offer leather with a quality-to-price balance that aligns with our goals. We control the source of our materials, selecting leather suppliers that provide the best cost-performance ratio, ensuring quality without compromise.
Beyond just the cost and quality, our emphasis on selecting the right leather factory also reflects our commitment to sustainability. Many of our partner factories adopt eco-friendly tanning processes, reducing the environmental impact typically associated with leather production. This means fewer harmful chemicals are used, and water waste is significantly minimized. By aligning ourselves with environmentally conscious suppliers, we are contributing to a more sustainable industry and helping our clients meet the growing consumer demand for ethical products.
Another key factor in our supplier selection is traceability. Knowing where our leather comes from and ensuring its quality at every stage of production allows us to be transparent with our customers. This transparency helps build trust with our clients, who can be assured that the products they are purchasing are made from responsibly sourced materials.
