Leather Tile

Leather as a decorative element in the home is most often seen in furniture applications. Most people who choose to use leather, value it for many reasons. It is durable, easy to keep clean, it never goes out of style, and the older it gets the better it looks. Plus, who doesn't love the smell of leather? It is like your favorite pair of jeans - comfortable, nostalgic, and it "just fits".



What about using leather in other applications? Such as in flooring or wall coverings. Leather is surprisingly durable, the patina it acquires as it ages is unmatched in any other material, and it is actually a very green choice.



Why is it green? It is made from the by product of one of our major food sources - beef. The steer hide is saved from being thrown out and left to rot in a landfill. It is then re-purposed into a lasting and beautiful green product. The hides are dyed in America by one of the few remaining factories that has not been shut down by the EPA. ( Meaning not only is the product made in the USA, it is dyed in a factory that meets the strict guidelines that are set forth by the EPA.)

The leather floor and wall tiles are available in a wide variety of colors and patterns. The applications look cool, and there is a wood and leather combination tile that is absolutely stunning.
