American Leather

American Leather was founded in 1990 on the belief that three months is too long to wait for a piece of customized furniture. In the time since, our engineers have set the standard in the industry for custom furniture.

What began as a small team in a borrowed facility has grown to more than 700 employees in Dallas, Texas, housed in a state-of-the-art 350,000-square-foot factory.

While impressive in size, our real growth is measured by our innovation, expert craftsmanship, technological advances, and performance. By the dynamic collections we introduce each year. By our commitment to, and the loyalty of, our retail customers. And by our resolve to do the right thing — maintain U.S. manufacturing jobs, meet our retail partners’ and consumers’ needs, and enhance the quality of life of our employees.

As a founding member of the Sustainable Furniture Council, a nonprofit organization created to promote sustainable practices in the furniture industry, American Leather is committed to making our products and manufacturing operations environmentally friendly.

This commitment begins at the very foundation of our custom-made furniture. Each frame is constructed from wood harvested from sustainable forests and is precision-engineered to create as little scrap as possible. The scrap that does result is recycled or reused.

All leathers use water-based pigments, and we offer environmentally friendly leathers. Our innovative manufacturing techniques minimize the number of leather scraps, and like our wood scraps, any remaining leather scraps are either recycled or resold for the production of small leather goods.

All of our furniture styles use soy-based BiOH Polyols Renew foam cushioning that is fully recyclable and available in an assortment of firmnesses and densities. Additionally, since April 2014, we have exclusively used foam, leather, fabric, and Ultrasuede that is free from fire retardants.

Our factory’s central U.S. location not only ensures fast product delivery compared to brands manufactured outside the country by reducing travel time, but it also yields a smaller carbon footprint than imported goods. Also, we conserve energy with automatic light shutoffs and encourage employees to recycle.
