[box type=”shadow” align=”aligncenter” ]Leather Cleaning is no way an easy task. It is more like art restoration, where a technician has to work on several elements like stains, loose thread, dirt lining etc. “Our services are analogous to that of a surgeon’s, both in terms of time expended and expertise involved,” says Mallika Sharma, Founder-The Leather Laundry.[/box]
Startup Journey
What propelled us to take up this venture was an enviable experience of two and half decades in the leather industry. We already have all the technical know-how, expertise and synergies in place! Also a genuine dearth of professional leather care technicians in India, prompted us to jump in and fill the gap by offering to clean, repair and care for leather, we are dissuading people from discarding their leather gear. This reduces wastefulness and conserves the environment (as leather processing entails a lot of water consumption and air pollution). Thus the Leather Laundry is a socially responsible initiative that tacitly reduces the impact of growing consumerism and fast fashion!
