Leather Types:

Pigmented leather
Anniline/Semi Anniline
Suede/Nubuck
Other Leathers

There are lots of other leather finishes, too numerous to list here but all have their own cleaning requirements, which our experienced leather cleaner will know you have so as to select the right cleaning method. Some leathers are pigmented meaning most dirt will sit on the surface, others are semi absorbent and some, such as Nubuck and Suede are very absorbent. How to clean them is very important as using the wrong method for the type of leather can have disastrous results.

It is also important to condition and protect leather so it lasts longer and resists spills and stains. Leather being a natural material, when a spillage occurs it will soak in and permanently stain. If however it is treated with a protector, this will allow you time to mop the spill before it soaks in. Different leather protectors are available for pigmented leather, anniline leather and suede and nubuck leather.
