Textiles Tenders
See open textiles tenders and awarded contracts for the UK public sector.
Textiles procurement mostly falls into two buckets: workwear and uniform fabric, already tracked on Stotles' clothing and uniform tenders pages, and leather, bought as its own distinct category. This page tracks the second: leather hides, upholstery leather, leather gloves and accoutrements, saddlery and harnesses.
Stotles has tracked 277 leather notices to date, including 137 awarded contracts and 33 at pre-tender stage. Leather (CPV 19100000) and animal wool, hides and skins (CPV 19280000) both show up in the corpus.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about leather in the UK public sector.
How do I find leather tenders in the UK?
Search live portals for leather, hide and accoutrement tenders, or move earlier by tracking the buyers who publish them. On Stotles you can filter by buyer, stage and CPV code, and read the documents behind a live procurement before it closes. Platform-wide, 2,146 tenders are open right now across every category Stotles tracks.
Why does this page cover leather rather than textiles generally?
Broad textile procurement splits into two things that do not belong on the same page. Workwear and uniform fabric is already tracked on Stotles' clothing and uniform tenders pages. A large share of the rest of what buyers title 'textiles' is waste collection and recycling of textile material from household recycling centres, a different market with a different intent entirely. Leather is the one textiles-adjacent category with its own clean, distinct buyer language, which is what this page tracks.
What kind of leather contracts does the public sector buy?
A specific set: leather hides and upholstery leather for heritage and parliamentary furniture, leather gloves and boots for defence and emergency services, leather accoutrements and headwear trim for police forces, saddlery and harnesses, and leather used in bookbinding and conservation work.
What CPV codes are associated with leather?
Leather (CPV 19100000) matches 24 notices alongside the keyword filter, and animal wool, hides and skins (CPV 19280000) matches 5. Broader clothing, footwear and defence-equipment codes also turn up throughout the corpus, since leather items are often bought as part of a uniform or PPE contract.
How many leather tenders has Stotles tracked?
277 leather notices to date, made up of 137 awarded contracts, 33 at pre-tender or early market-engagement stage, and the rest open or closed for bids. New notices are added continuously as buyers publish, so return to this page rather than relying on a single search.
