The trend is encouraging: more and more people are buying skins that we produce in our tannery in Emmental. This encourages us to consistently pursue our path as independent Swiss producers. We want to generate as much added value as possible in Switzerland.
As by far the largest Swiss fur tannery we preserve a valuable craft and lead it into the future with modern means. Nevertheless, the diversity of our product range means that we have reached our limits and therefore import some of the furs and fur products.

This also applies to the game skins that we refine and offer you: Fox skins, deer skins, chamois skins, etc. - they all come from local hunting without torturous traps. Not a single animal had to suffer or lose its life for a coat in our range - We also do not carry any skins from breeding farms.
