SAVANNE®

SAVANNE® is the icon of Semi-anilines and the preferred choice of Danish design classics. Part of what makes iconic designs so iconic is their eternal appeal, using a leather that can withstand the test of time. It’s just one reason why SAVANNE® is a forever favourite and why we call it “an all-time Sørensen classic”.

Matt with a subtle shine, SAVANNE® is a natural full grain leather with visible pores on the smooth surface, adding character and authenticity to any project imaginable. It also has a soft touch and feel that makes it extremely comfortable. As a Semi-aniline, the surface has a special finish that helps protect it from stains and exposure to light.

Our SAVANNE® collection has received the LEATHER STANDARD by OEKO-TEX® certification. A scientifically-founded, worldwide testing and certification system for leather. Based on international test standards and other recognised test processes, the certification involves around 100 test parameters. Including numerous environmentally-relevant substances and chemicals harmful to the health. The more intensively an article comes into contact with the skin, the stricter the human-ecological requirements that it must fulfil.

SAVANNE® is now certified with the German Blue Angel Ecolabel (Der Blaue Engel).

Care & cleaning
As a natural material, leather requires looking after. If you care for the leather in the right way, it will become even more beautiful over time. Here are a few tips:
Our leather is ready for you to use as soon as it arrives, so there is no initial need to treat it or clean it. Over time if you see the need for cleaning, use a vacuum cleaner once or twice a month with a soft brush to remove any dust. Once or twice a year for thorough cleaning, use the foam from soap flakes stirred in warm water. Apply the foam with a dry soft cloth, minimizing any contact with water. Avoid bar soap, saddle soap, leather cleaners, household detergents or chemical products. Protect from direct sunlight, excessive heat and sharp objects

The care and maintenance of leather will always depend on the specific way in which it is used, the conditions of use and how often it is used.
