All of our products are made from quality natural leather therefore slight variations in the colour and texture of the leather are subject to change from hide to hide. This is part of the natural beauty of leather.
WHAT DO WE (KEEN) DO AND WHY?
We are committed to supporting responsible leather manufacturing across the globe and that is why we are a proud member of the Leather Working Group. LWG tanneries are assessed on their environmental performance and are certified as Gold, Silver, Bronze or Audited, depending on their performance. We purchase 100% of our leather from LWG-certified suppliers.
WHAT IS THE LEATHER WORKING GROUP?
The Leather Working Group/LWG is a membership organisation comprised of brands, suppliers, leather manufacturers and other stakeholders within the leather manufacturing industry. The group has developed an auditing programme which certifies leather manufacturing facilities based on their environmental compliance and performance capabilities.
WHAT DOES THE LEATHER WORKING GROUP DO?
They asses tanneries across key areas including (but not limited to) energy consumption, water usage, air and noise emissions, waste management, health and safety, chemicals management and the traceability of material through the leather supply chain. Tanneries are now also required to have a recognized social audit.
