Italian Luxury Tannery
LA NOSTRA QUALITA
Antiba tannery produces high-quality chrome and vegetable-tanned goat and half-calf skins, which are the result of an innovative production process. Thanks to its achievements and reliability proved over time, Antiba is able to compete in the international market, supplying some of the most important luxury brands.
Reliability, innovation, sustainability, and exclusivity are the axes on which the tannery works to create luxury leathers. Antiba’s supply chain is based on social and environmental sustainability principles, and on the traceability of raw materials as confirmed by the certificates obtained over the years.
Our Strength
Security and Reliability
Thanks to the efficiency and punctuality offered to their customers, Antiba has built a solid reputation over the years. The company grants security and reliability starting from the origin of the raw materials, which are selected and controlled accurately. Such professionalism has grown and was developed over time thanks to the internalization of several production process phases – a distinctive trait of Antiba within the Tuscan tanning district – the installation of an in-house laboratory for physical tests, and the earning of several process certificates. The result is a safe, controlled, and certified finished leather.
Innovation
The constant search for innovation and improvement has always set Antiba apart. The investment in new machines and refinement techniques, the development of expertise, and the internalization of different services, and production phases are the driving force of the company.
Antiba periodically introduces innovations in products and techniques in order to offer a product that lives up to the market standards.
Sustainability
The company’s efforts towards environmental and social sustainability are well highlighted in Antiba’s code of ethics, and they are taken into consideration every time new projects and investments start. Antiba’s sustainability strategy involves a zero-waste policy and punctual control over the factory’s consumption to progressively reduce the company’s environmental impact.
Exclusivity
Antiba offers a very punctual, customized, and exclusive service to its customers. Each piece of leather is carefully treated during the prototype and industrial stages. Manual boarding, special manufacturing, and customization are some of the exclusive services reserved for the most demanding luxury customers.
