Conceria Montebello

What Conceria Montebello does

Conceria Montebello S.p.A. is an Italian premium bovine leather tannery founded in 1967 in Montebello Vicentino (Veneto), now operating into its third generation of family ownership under the Dalle Mese / Brancati families and held within Studioart HDM s.r.l. since 2017. The company operates a full-cycle leather production process — from raw hide through chrome tanning and water-based finishing to color development — at its single headquarters in the Arzignano tanning district, supported by an in-house ICEC TS 406-certified laboratory (opened 2016), rooftop photovoltaic generation of approximately 500,000 KWH annually, and 100% certified green electricity from Alperia. Technical differentiators include a patented calcination water-recycling system achieving 70% water reuse, a chromium fixation process capturing 97% of chromium (with the remaining 3% purified and reused), and the first worldwide deployment of Airlite mineral paint on tannery walls.

The company's commercial offering is organized into three lines — Icons Collection (signature leathers), Seasonal Collections (fashion-driven drops) and Fast Collection (ready-to-ship stock including Savana Next, Dreaming, London X, Epochal, Long Beach, and Grace) — sold exclusively B2B through dedicated sales managers targeting international luxury fashion maisons (named clients include Versace, Valentino, Dior, Chanel, Alexander McQueen), footwear manufacturers, leather goods producers and luxury furniture makers. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales supported by trade fair participation, an inbound Fast Collection inquiry process, and content marketing through the company's blog, social channels and Montebello Lab publication. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and quotes are contact-based, consistent with a premium B2B positioning.

The business is differentiated by a dense sustainability and quality certification stack — LWG Gold, ISO 14001:2015, ISO 9001:2015, SA8000:2014, ICEC TS 406, ICEC Sustainability, UNIC Code of Conduct, and Alperia Green Energy — and by ongoing R&D co-funded through POR FESR 2014-2020 Regione Veneto grants, including the Ri-Leather project on PFAS-free, metal-free leather and the SAFE project extending leather technology into wearable electronics, sportsystem, eyewear and safety equipment. Revenue and headcount are not publicly disclosed; share capital stands at €10,200,000.
