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 and leather goods division is also equipped with all the capabilities to produce quality comfort footwear and leather goods 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.
