UK Hide distributes Connolly car leather

08/06/2005

UK Hide Ltd has become the authorised distributor of Connolly Leather and is in possession of large quantities of leather after the company ceased trading. It currently holds stocks of original Connolly hides and is working with members of the Connolly family, making Autolux, Autocalf and Vaumol to the original specification colours.

Autolux car leather was the flagship of the Connolly range used for decades by Rolls Royce, Ferrari, Aston Martin, Jaguar and many more. Supple and naturally finished but with no embossed grain, it is tanned to retain its shape and durability and comes in a wide range of colours. It has also been used in the House of Commons and Windsor Castle and is favoured by interior designers and boat manufacturers.

The Autocalf range was developed by Connolly to run alongside the Autolux range using the same colours as Autolux but at a more affordable price. Desogned for the automotive trimmer, this versatile collection can be used in a wide variety of old and new cars. The hides have an embossed grain and are said to be hardwearing yet soft and supple.

UK Hide supplies high quality modern and traditional car leather for automotive trimmers and upholsterers but also for furniture, aviation and marine applications.
