Ethical Sourcing of Sheep and Cow Hides

Sheepskin Trimming Process

At The Mood, we are committed to the ethical sourcing of sheep and cow hides used in our home furnishings products. All raw hides we utilize are by-products of the meat industry, sourced exclusively from reputable abattoirs and packers. These raw materials originate from farmers who primarily raise sheep and cows for meat consumption rather than for their skins.


We take great pride in not raising sheep and cows ourselves, ensuring a clear distinction between our core business and the sources of our materials. Instead, we rely on a select group of trusted suppliers including our manufacturing partners, who share our values and commitment to animal welfare.



We strictly require all our suppliers to adhere to stringent animal welfare policies, ensuring that the sheep and cows are treated with respect and care throughout their lives. This commitment to ethical sourcing reflects our dedication to responsible practices and our desire to promote sustainability within the industry.



At The Mood, we believe in offering high-quality products that not only enhance your home but also align with your values and concerns for animal welfare. Through our thoughtful and conscientious approach to sourcing, we aim to provide our customers with peace of mind, knowing that they are choosing products that are both stylish and ethically produced.
