Tärnsjö Garveri is located in northwest Uppland, just two miles from Gysinge. A more than 150-year-old company that is thriving more than ever and which largely works in the same way as it always has.

The big hides are prepared in the same way as tanners have always done, using bark as the tanning agent. Skilled saddlers make the most exclusive briefcases and laptop bags alongside saddles and reins, gloves and boots.

Tärnsjö competes with international tanneries on the world market. Louis Vuitton has long bought its leather from Tärnsjö, as have Brooks in England and a number of other famous brand manufacturers.

It traces the company’s development from tannery for the surrounding parishes’ farms, through the period when chrome was used as a tanning agent, to today’s environmentally conscious group with a focus on quality, where the language is English and where they cooperate with forestry companies to obtain a domestic tanning agent.
