As an industry leader, Colvin-Friedman helps Texas manufacturers meet growing environmental and regulatory demands:
While leather is a popular material for a wide variety of products, ranging from shoes to holsters, harnesses and more, there is no perfect source. Unlike synthetics, suppliers can offer ranges of thicknesses and they are measured in ounces. While 1/64th of an inch per ounce might not seem like much, it means that a popular method for large-scale die cutting, the rotary press, is not a feasible option, even for the thinnest natural materials.
Instead, leather die cutting should be performed using either a sheet metal rule process or a flat bed process. Which one makes the most sense depends on the expected production volume, intricacy of cuts or designs and the type of leather. If you are still considering materials for your product, the following are common weights and applications:
Proximity and Turnaround Time
Technological Expertise
Customization Flexibility
Sustainability
Regulatory Compliance
Fast delivery and reduced delays for Texas manufacturers.
Advanced equipment and experience in high-precision industries
Tailored solutions with easy adjustments for prototypes or production changes.
Domestic production minimizes carbon emissions and shipping costs.
Expertise in both state and federal regulations ensures your products meet all requirements.
Local suppliers may lack advanced capabilities; overseas suppliers face long lead times.
Limited flexibility for customization, especially with overseas providers.
Overseas shipping significantly increases environmental impact.
Limited understanding of U.S. regulations may cause compliance issues.
