Norskin AS is a Norwegian company based in Fauske, specializing in sustainable leather made from salmon skin. This innovative approach provides an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional cowhide leather. Norskin's mission is to reduce the environmental impact of the leather industry by utilizing byproducts from certified fish farms in Northern Norway, ensuring sustainability and traceability throughout the product lifecycle. The company produces various forms of salmon leather, including untreated "pickle" leather and treated "crust" leather, which can be customized to meet customer specifications. Known for its exceptional strength and luxurious suede texture, Norskin's leather is also 100% metal-free, enhancing its environmental credentials. In addition to leather, Norskin explores other uses for fish byproducts, such as developing packaging materials from fish scales in collaboration with partners. Norskin targets industries like fashion and luxury goods, focusing on businesses that prioritize sustainable and traceable materials.
