ELeather is engineered leather which comes on rolls 30 metres long by 1.4 metres wide. ELeather has developed a lightweight product specifically for the rail industry which meets BS5852-2:2006-Crib 7.

  • ELeather weighs 560gsm compared to natural leather which is 850-900gsm.
  • Consistency of the colour and grain from roll to roll
  • ELeather has a greater life span than fabric
  • ELeather is easier to clean and maintain than fabric
  • No sagging due to core
  • Can be stack cut
  • Can be laminated to foam
  • No natural defects - easier to nest and cut
  • Confidence in order volume
  • Novel coatings - grain patterns, colours and effects.
  • ELeather cutting wastage is around 5% compared to natural leather which is 18-40%.


The production process uses recycled wet blue leather which is fiberised and then hydro-entangled through a mesh core without using adhesives.

95% of the process water is recycled and waste streams are converted into energy which is fed back into the process.
ELeather has currently developed 48 colours and a wide selection of grains.
For large orders colour and grain can be customised.
