Artificial Leather from Chropyně: Chosen by Major Brands

Just a few kilometers from Kroměříž, in the town of Chropyně, lies the production facility of SVITAP s.r.o. – the only manufacturer of artificial leather (leatherette) in the Czech Republic. For over thirty years, this site has been producing technical textiles and leatherette for industrial applications across a wide range of sectors – from transportation to healthcare.
Custom Leatherette Production for Industry and Design
SVITAP produces over 150 types of leatherette, differing in thickness, weight, color, and special finishes. The focus is on individual customer requirements – each leatherette is tailored for specific applications in furniture making, the automotive industry, healthcare, or public transportation.
Every type is tested for durability, color fastness, washability, or flame retardancy, ensuring long-lasting performance even under demanding conditions.
Strong Clients Confirm the Quality of Czech Manufacturing
Long-term cooperation with well-known partners plays a key role in SVITAP’s success. These include:
- JECH CZ – reclining chairs for homes and social care facilities
- Iveco – upholstery for bus interiors
- BORCAD cz – train seating and railway equipment
- Biomag Medical – medical and rehabilitation aids
- Otavan Workwear – work and protective clothing
These partnerships prove that the Czech manufacturer SVITAP meets global standards and delivers solutions that perform reliably even in the most demanding environments.
More than Just Leatherette
In addition to leatherette, SVITAP also produces reinforced membranes, PET strapping, textile laminates, and tents and shelters under the Stromeyer brand at its other facilities.
