About Us
At T. Abdul Wahid Tanneries, creating a culture of optimism and harmony with nature has always been a genuine resolve. Our legacy in leather has allowed us to innovate with the times. Our state-of-the-art effluent treatment plant, equipped with RO, Chrome Recovery, and Mechanical Evaporation systems is just one example that allows us to recycle 95% of the water utilised.
Founded in 1949 by Mr. T. Abdul Wahid, our strategically located tannery between Chennai & Bangalore consists of two divisions - Tannery 1 & 2.
Tannery 1 boasts cutting-edge machinery, processing a range of high-quality leathers while focusing on local sourcing to reduce the carbon footprint and Tannery 2 excels in post-tanning and finishing operations, serving top brands with high quality finished leather. Behind the scenes, our R&D division heavily tests and develops new leather articles to stay ahead of fashion and leather trends. Our footwear division is also equipped with all the capabilities to produce quality-comfort footwear using quality leather.
With a combined capacity to produce over 1.2 Million sq.ft a month, our tanneries have consecutively held Gold ratings from the Leather Working Group, and our SATRA-certified inspectors ensure that international standards are met to sustainably output the best of leather.
