Bowron Sheepskin Rugs - In 1881 the Bowron Rugs began when two brothers started a small tannery in Christchurch, New Zealand. This small tannery would eventually evolve into something much bigger. Today, the name “Bowron” is synonymous with some of the world’s finest sheepskin and lambskin products. The 42 step tanning method pioneered in the 1880s has been constantly refined and is still used today. With an unmatched commitment to quality and the finest raw materials, rest assured you are getting the best value and peace of mind. The superior quality of Bowron Sheepskin is due to their location in the midst of the finest sheep. The tanning facility in New Zealand is near prime sheep farming areas ensuring premium quality products. Bowron staff works within these manufacturing plants where only the finest materials are used. They strive to not only exceed customer expectations in terms of quality and cost but more importantly the health, safety and environmental requirements. The traditional way to mass produce Bowron Rugs came at a grave cost. Heavy water consumptions and lethal chemicals were often used in the past. Today, cutting edge chemistry and strong research allows Bowron sheepskins to be produced without jeopardizing the integrity of the environment. Eco-friendly environments are extremely important to the Bowron name and their customers. Bowron sheepskins are delivered in large volumes all over the country. Bowron has always been and will continue to be a well-respected name in the sheepskin industry.
