Henan Prosper & Colomer Moda has completed the acquisition of French leather manufacturer Cuirs du Futur (CDF) through its Spanish subsidiary Colomer 1792 adding the company’s stretch leather expertise and MAGISCO brand to its portfolio.

Announced on November 12, 2026 the acquisition strengthens the Group’s capabilities in specialised high-quality leather materials and supports its expansion in the international high fashion market.

Based in Graulhet in France CDF specialises in stretch leather for haute couture and high end ready to wear under its MAGISCO brand. The company has developed its own production equipment, formulations and processing techniques, building expertise in this specialised material.

CDF’s technical roots date back to 1964 when Manuel Saussol was leading a family business specialising in fabric bonding. He was approached by DuPont de Nemours the company behind Lycra fibre to explore the combination of leather and stretch textiles.

Following an extended period of research and development the collaboration led to the development of stretch leather in the early 1990s. This became the foundation for Cuirs du Futur and its specialised MAGISCO brand.

One of MAGISCO’s signature materials is its stretch lambskin. It is produced by splitting lambskin to approximately 0.2 mm thickness and laminating it onto an elastane based textile backing. This construction preserves the leather’s natural character and fine grain while giving it a lightweight, supple feel, elasticity and fluid drape.

Following the acquisition CDF’s existing French operations and technical team will remain in place. They will continue to oversee brand operations and technical production while maintaining production systems, quality standards and craftsmanship.

Henan Prosper & Colomer Moda will become the official sales channel for MAGISCO using the Group’s market resources and business network to support the brand’s expansion across North America and Asia Pacific.

Henan Prosper & Colomer Moda said the acquisition will broaden its high end leather portfolio and strengthen its capabilities in specialised materials. By bringing CDF’s technical expertise and MAGISCO brand into the Group it aims to offer international fashion brands a wider range of differentiated leather materials.
