An important week in the leather calendar is coming up: at APLF in Dubai the leather supply chain will be coming together. From raw, crust to finished leathers, chemicals, dyes, tanning machinery, design and support services. The fair is all about inspiration for materials, colors and trends. But also to re-connect, after years without events, and to “Reenergise the leather world with familiarity in a new city”. Zeology tanned Leather at APLF Dubai Do not miss Zeology tanned leather at the fair! You will find it at the booths of, among others, our Zeology Partners Uyguner and Unionpelli.
