General Information
CUSTOMERS OWN MATERIAL
Vehyster Ltd is pleased to cooperate with customer's own fabric and leather requests. A sample
cutting will need to be submitted to Vehyster Ltd for preliminary approval. The sample should
measure a minimum of 200 x 200mm for a solid colour or if the material has a repeat pattern, then the
sample needs to be large enough to show the repeat.
Even after preliminary approval, Vehyster Ltd reserves the right to reject the material if it is felt during the
manufacturing process the material is inadequate for any reason. If a material is rejected, this will not
necessarily mean the product is defective in any way. It only implies a less than perfect upholstery
performance could be achieved across the form and structure of the proposed furniture piece.
When the customers own material has been accepted, Vehyster Ltd assumes no responsibility for its
appearance, durability or colour-fastness.
Each product will have a unique material requirement, and total quantities should be obtained from
Vehyster Ltd. Upholstery requirements are based on 1300mm widths for fabric as a minimum and
leather requirements are based on whole hides with a minimum of 4.5m2 per complete hide.
MATERIAL NOTES
Standard leathers are all first quality full grain. Vehyster Ltd do not specify leather that has been sanded,
embossed and artificially textured to hide barbed wire or branding marks, scars, and
other blemishes. In time, top grain painted or enhanced leathers will crack, chip and peel. Leathers
supplied on products supplied by Vehyster Ltd are tanned to preserve the leather and enhance its
natural characteristics.
All leathers supplied by Vehyster Ltd are procured as by-products of the meat industry. No animal has
been raised for its hide alone.
NATURAL MATERIALS
Leather, marble and wood make up a large part of the materials shown within this Home Catalogue.
Each natural product is different and has its own characteristics, even when sourced from the same
forest, quarry or animal. Marble will have different hues, veins, crystals, clouds and even fossils from
stone to stone.
Leather differs from animal to animal, therefore each hide will have its own unique life-marks and
texture. Range marks, texture and skin stretches are not camouflaged during the tanning process, and
are retained to keep the natural feel of the material. Colours and texture vary, and will do so more as
the product matures and the leather mellows taking on a rich patina. The leather, marble and wood
shown in the Vehyster Ltd Home Catalogue cannot be precisely duplicated across products as the
materials used are not man-made.
Rejection of product on the above basis will not be considered a viable reason for return.
