As a pure Aniline leather ELMOTIQUE does not have any pigment or plastic sprayed onto its surface during the tanning process, thus retaining a unique and natural softness. This also provides the sitter with excellent comfort due to the leather's ability to breathe naturally.

Only the very cleanest raw hides are classified for pure Aniline leathers, however, because of the lack of artificial embossing there may be natural hallmarks such as insect bites and scratches still visible on the finished product, these being a sure sign of a superior natural leather with its own individuality.

Pure aniline leathers do not have a protective coating applied to the surface and are therefore more susceptible to sunlight and are not recommended for furniture used by small children or for high traffic areas where food and drink could stain the leather. For these types of areas a semi aniline leather is preferred.

This product is manufactured by an environmentally responsible company. Elmo operates an Environmental Management System (14001) that is accredited by the International Standards Organisation (ISO).
