Stahl EleGrade®: Elevating performance, together

Technically advanced, with sustainability built-in 

As a producer of leather goods, any upgrades to your hide need to maintain its looks, aesthetic and performance, so your customers can cherish their leather goods for a long time to come. 

The Stahl EleGrade^® portfolio is part of the Stahl Neo^® collection and covers the critical tanning bases: quality, yield, value, aesthetics and performance. Our newly upgraded formulation offers distinct advantages to elevate quality in multiple end applications, including reduced yellowing effects thanks to improved heat stability as well as state-of-the-art microcapsule technology. 

By elevating the quality of your hides, you'll benefit from a beautiful finish and an increased yield, reducing waste and costs incurred from lower-grade finishes. 

At the same time, we see that technical requirements are increasingly matched by calls for greater sustainability and corporate social responsibility throughout the value chain. Stahl is well-placed to meet this challenge, with a continuous focus on innovation and improving our environmental footprint driven by our purpose of 'Touching lives, for a better world'. Our leather processing products comply with the requirements of the Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals Manufacturing Restricted Substances List (ZDHC-MRSL), so you can be sure of the sustainable credentials of your finished product.
