Quality

We are committed to quality.

At Scottish Leather Group we have a full team of trained quality engineers who support the quality function directly with our customer and supply chain on site.

Our most recent investment within our Bridge of Weir factory is the new state-of-the-art material testing laboratory and R&D facility. Every batch of leather produced is developed and tested in-house, to the customer’s specification and supplied with a laboratory report ensuring that our product conforms to their specification.
