Produced without chromium ELMOSOFT is even better. It combines a beautiful soft handle with great durability and a beautiful natural appearance. All of nature’s gifts such as growth marks, insect bites, healed scars etc are there to be seen, thus making each hide unique.
As ELMOSOFT is chrome-free it is more comfortable, as less pigment is required on the surface thus allowing the leather to breathe more readily. With 42 classic and contemporary colours in the palette ELMOSOFT is the perfect choice for both commercial and domestic use.
