WHY AB LEATHER

Why buyers source directly from us.

We own the tannery, the manufacturing floor, and the QC lab. That means one point of contact, consistent quality, and no markup from middlemen.

01◈

Vertically Integrated

The leather in your gloves comes from hides we select, tan, dye, and finish ourselves. Most Sialkot manufacturers buy leather from the open market. We don't. That gives you full material traceability from hide to packed carton.

02◉

Certified Materials

Chrome-tanned or chrome-free, your call. Every tanning batch is tested for tensile strength, pH, and colour before it reaches the cutting floor. Oeko-Tex and REACH compliance available for EU and Scandinavian markets.

03◐

Custom OEM Manufacturing

Send us your spec sheet or start from one of ours. We handle pattern development, sampling, and standards documentation. Minimum order: 500 pairs. Your label, your colours, your compliance certs.

04◎

Factory-Direct Lead Times

Standard orders ship in 30 to 45 working days from confirmation. Sialkot sits 120km from Lahore International Airport, giving us same-day access to air freight for urgent shipments.

HOW WE MAKE THEM

Six stages, one facility, no outsourcing.

Every stage from raw hide selection through packing happens under our roof in Sialkot. That means we catch defects at the source, not at final inspection.

Raw Hide Selection

Premium hides from Punjab and Sindh abattoirs, graded for grain quality and thickness before entering our beamhouse

Vegetable Tanning

Traditional bark tanning for durability, breathability, and chrome-free compliance where required

Finishing & Dyeing

In-house colour and finish applied to our own tanned leather, no third-party processors

Precision Cutting

Die-cut patterns to ±0.5mm tolerance for consistent sizing across every production run

Hand Stitching

Reinforced saddle stitching by skilled craftspeople across 18 to 22 operations per pair

QC & Inspection

Incoming, in-process, and final inspection to ISO 2859-1 sampling standards before packing

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Common questions from buyers.

Are your leather work gloves EN388 rated?

Our mechanical and construction gloves are tested to EN388:2016 mechanical protection standards by accredited third-party labs; lab name and report number available on RFQ. Formal CE certification is in issuance through a notified body.

Can I source leather gloves directly from Pakistan?

Yes. Sourcing directly from a Sialkot manufacturer like AB Leather typically reduces per-unit cost by 30 to 40% compared to buying through a local distributor. We handle export documentation and can work with your nominated freight forwarder.

Do you offer OEM custom branding for work gloves?

Yes. We support full OEM manufacturing from 500 pairs per SKU. Custom label, colour, and packaging are all available. We handle pattern development, sampling, and compliance documentation under your brand.

What is your minimum order quantity?

500 pairs per SKU for standard catalogue production. We also run a dedicated sampling tier of 50 to 100 pairs per SKU for buyers evaluating construction, fit, and finish before committing to a production run. Sampling orders are priced per-pair and ship in 10 to 14 days.

Can I order a small batch to evaluate quality first?

Yes. Our sampling tier is 50 to 100 pairs per SKU and is designed specifically for evaluation — it ships faster than a full production run (10 to 14 days vs. 35 to 45) and uses the same materials, tannage, and stitching as the volume run. Most distributor buyers approve a sample batch before placing a first 500-pair PO.
