Advantages for TFL customers: knowledge of the future colour preferences and trends helps designers, manufacturers and tanners stay one step ahead of the market. In combination with the fasion colour trends TFL provides information about the appropriate dyes and dye application.

In this edition of the colour trends, we would like to give you a better understanding of our TFL COOL SYSTEM. Why don¡ät you use the COOL-technology for dark colours? This will not only be a "cool" fashion idea but people wearing it will literally stay cooler. So dark colours for warm seasons is no longer a "no-no" but a cool idea. With COOL dyes, this is also possible in summer time. Please find more information about COOL shades on the last pages of this book.

The TFL Colour Trends for the leather industry have been selected by Italian designers, using a panel of international expert colourists. These sources guarantee the global relevance of the TFL Colour Trend Catalogue.

TFL hopes you find this catalogue of real value in your day-to-day decision making on colour.
