In the 1960s, Dunkelman expanded their product offering to include a range of polishes, creams, and protectors – this is how the Dasco brand was born. Today the brand is a market leader, selling globally and representing an industry standard for quality and innovation.

“Our company ethos is to keep evolving to bring exciting new and innovative products to our customers, whilst ensuring the quality and traditions that have always been associated with Dasco.”

Materials

The company loves to work with brands using materials that are as sustainable as possible – all the items Dasco works with must be 100% vegan. For vegan leathers, the company has a PVC-free policy, and prefers items made using plant-based leathers.
