Procurement Guide

Leather Upholstery Could be ordered as per no. of hides or by the square feet/inclusive maximum no. of hides in ordered square feet area. Hides normally vary in size from 35-45 sq. ft. and trimmed to minimize wastage. The colours of hides may vary from batch to batch.

The diagram represents the shape of a typical hide. Measuring approximately 40 square feet/3.70 square meter.

A linear meter of 50"-54" fabric is equal to 18 square feet of 1.67 square meter of leather.

One square meter is equal to 10.763 square feet.
