Leather Chemicals

With more than 100 years of experience in leather chemicals, they provide a comprehensive product range that covers the complete leather-making process.

Their valure^TM, BASF’s innovative transfer coating technology, allows virtually unlimited design freedom through the use of a laser-engraved mold with design opportunities ranging from perfect interpretations of natural surfaces to innovative presentations of technical textures and designers’ own creations combined with unique soft touch effects and the possibility of color matching.
Their technology also supports brand protection as small, almost invisible logo features can be built into the design to address counterfeit challenges.
