Ultimate Living's Suppliers Are Genuine Italian Producers

Ultimate Living’s suppliers Nicoline Italia and Calia Italia are both family owned genuine Italian producers. Their products are designed and made in Italy, using the finest Italian leathers; only top grain or full grain leather, meaning that Ultimate Living do not promote split, composite or bonded leather.

Nicoline Italia say that being a sofa’s ‘small big tailoring shop’ means being able to combine the production ability of a large factory with the versatility to deliver custom made products, typical of a small tailoring shop. It also means being able to offer customised solutions that meet customers’ needs.

Their products are delivered with a leather sample (or fabric) that certifies the exact match to the finish chosen by the customer. Nicoline’s products are packed with special care, including ‘double thickness’ bubble wrap and carton corner protectors for maximum protection during transport. Nicoline’s connection with its customers does not end with the sofa sale. Nicoline is a company that listens to the market and is careful about its customers’ needs.

Calia Italia, a brand division of Calia Trade SpA, with its over forty-year experience in design and production of leather sofas, has been able to match artisan capability and the search for quality in each detail with a responsible and global approach to environmental and social awareness.

Throughout the production chain, from the manufacturing process, to the finished product, Calia Italia consistently expresses a strong interest in environmental issues.

Objects made of leather are a class apart from any synthetic fiber due to their natural, rich and elegant finish. Today, many similar looking synthetic materials are available in the market sold at a much cheaper price. There are also products that are made only in part with pure leather but are branded as ‘genuine leather’ or ‘made with genuine leather’. These are ambiguous terms used by marketers to mislead consumers, so if you are planning to buy a top quality leather product, which is quite expensive, you should head for Ultimate Living’s website at http://www.ultimateliving.co.nz .
