Kings International
About us | KINGS INTERNATIONAL was established in 1977 in the leather town of Kanpur in India primarily to manufacture and export leather equestrian goods, dog collars and leashes. In 1997, in order to gain better control over the quality and supply of the raw hides, a tannery was commissioned. The modern, in-house tannery has an installed capacity of processing 200 hides per day, using cleaner technology and state-of-the-art machines with the help of qualified and experienced technicians and professionals. The company is making chrome-free, vegetable tanned leather using high grade Indian Buffalo hides and prime European bovine hides to produce the economical and superior quality leather for our own use. All kinds of leathers being produced are free from PCP, Azo dyes, Benzadine, etc, prohibited by most of the developed countries. The mechanized and purpose-built leather stitching facility has all the latest strap processing machines, tools and dies to service the export orders more consistently and speedily using the traditional and modern technologies with the help of capable and experienced craftsmen, giving the company technological edge over the conventional competitors.

The working environment in both the tannery and factory is quite healthy, safe and eco-friendly using all the safety equipments and the protective gadgets thereby, complying to the national and international working conditions required under labour laws and regulations.
