Cut to Pattern
Conneaut Leather is dedicated to its customers in quality and service. Our cut-to-pattern program is a special service, providing complete cut parts for upholstered furniture, in a broad range of fashionable leathers. A cut-to-pattern program allows the manufacturer to become a viable leather furniture resource without the intricacies of whole-hide inventory, cutting schedules, manpower and dollars. This concept enables any upholstered furniture manufacturer to sell leather furniture in both quantity and through special ordering by the retailer.
The most important aspect of implementing a cut-to-pattern program is having the advantage of a fixed cost for the product. All leather parts are cut according to your manufacturing specifications, quality standards and methods, and individually inspected to meet that criteria. Programs regarding stocking and delivery can be customized to fit your needs. Our skilled and dedicated personnel are knowledgeable in manufacturing processes and methods, providing expertise and recommendations for better leather usage resulting in higher yields.
Conneaut Leather has been creating quality cut-to-pattern parts for furniture manufacturers as well as the automotive industry for some of the most recognizable names in both industries.

recuts and even-up cuts are required frequently - our machine will
ensure the correct quantity of each part is cut because operators no
longer have to track which dies have already been placed.
