The company was established by Hugo Ahlskog, visionary and entrepreneur who saw the possibilities in the business. In 1956 a new factory was introduced and Hugo's son Mats Ahlskog continued his father's work. Mats put a great effort in developing the company and production. With its 40 workers the company was one of the first tanneries in the world to claim certificate for its environmentally friendly act. In the 20th century, the company has specialized in producing luxurious leather for garment producers. We only use European raw material, reindeer from the North of Finland, Sweden and Norway and lamb from Europe.
