Our numbers
A solid industrial reality.
ONLY FRANK SYSTEM
A new standard for skin, between ethics, technology and vision
Our way of making tannery is born from a precise choice: to combine ancient knowledge and concrete innovation to create materials that speak the language of the future.
Vegetable tanning, industrial sustainability and design as a material expression are the three pillars on which we build each article. For us, innovating does not only mean changing: it means creating an authentic balance between nature, technology and identity.
vegetable tanning
concrete innovation
Our philosophy is based on the balance between tradition and innovation. We use vegetable tanning methods with natural tannins such as quebracho, mimosa and chestnut, practices rooted in the territory of Solofra for over 500 years. At the same time, we invest in cutting-edge technologies to optimize efficiency and reduce environmental impact.
responsibility
as industrial value
Sustainability is at the heart of our work. We have reduced water use by 25% and energy consumption by 30%, implementing recycling systems and eco-friendly solutions, as a testament to our commitment to transparent and ethical practices that respect people, the environment and the community in which we live.
Design
as material language
We collaborate with creative studios and international brands to transform leather into a tool of expression. Each article is born from the connection between research, intuition and vision. Only Frank leather is designed to evolve, to last, to tell a story: yours.
