Italian veg tanning specialist AUSONIA opened its first Asian factory on November 4, 2026 at Henan Prosper & Colomer Moda’s headquarters in China marking a new phase in the company’s expansion across Asia.
Founded in 1946 AUSONIA brings 80 years of Italian veg tanning heritage to the new facility. The company became part of the Henan Prosper group in 2024 through its Spanish subsidiary Colomer 1792.
The facility replicates key elements of AUSONIA’s Italian production system including raw materials, tanning agents, production equipment and craftsmanship standards. The company says this approach aims to ensure continuity in the company’s tanning expertise and quality requirements.
The facility also uses modern equipment and refined process controls to improve production precision, efficiency and consistency.
The opening gives AUSONIA a production presence in both Italy and China. Local manufacturing is intended to support customers across China and other Asian markets through more efficient deliveries.
The company also plans to strengthen technical exchange and joint development between its Italian and Chinese operations. This cooperation is expected to support product innovation and improve its responsiveness to customer requirements.
