La-Z-Boy UK has been chosen as Best Leather Upholstery Manufacturer for 2025 by Interiors Monthly readers. The award follows an exciting year of expansion for La-Z-Boy UK, particularly the company’s leather products.
The internationally renowned brand, known for inventing the first recliner, is now manufacturing leather sofas and chairs at its UK factory as well as its overseas facilities. Up until this year, the manufacturing plant in Colne, Lancashire had focused solely on fabric upholstery.
Four Made in Britain collections are available in leather as well as fabric, giving customers more choice and potentially reducing the lead time for leather products. Baxter was the first UK-manufactured range to become available in premium-quality Italian leather, with the new upholstery options being revealed to retailers at the January Furniture Show. It has been joined by Tamla and Pittsburgh (exclusive to DFS stores) and Anna.
‘The La-Z-Boy UK team is delighted that Interiors Monthly readers have recognised the hard work that goes into our leather upholstery manufacturing. We are dedicated to bringing comfort, quality and choice to consumers, and we are proud to have been named Best Leather Upholstery Manufacturer for 2025,’ says Tristan Pyke, La-Z-Boy UK md.
‘This year has been one of growth and innovation for La-Z-Boy UK, and there are many more exciting developments in the pipeline. Adding leather upholstery options to four of our Made in Britain collections gives even more choice to our customers, and we hope to introduce leather to even more UK-manufactured ranges in the future. I’d like to personally thank everyone who voted for La-Z-Boy UK to win in this category. We believe the quality of our products speaks for itself and only ever use genuine leather in our collections.’
Four premium contemporary ranges have also been launched this year, available in soft luxury leathers introduced specifically for the collections.
Faith, Skye, Essence and Jasmine are aimed at design-conscious consumers looking to make a stylish statement in their homes. Ideal for open-plan living spaces and contemporary apartments, each collection has its own unique look designed to stand out from the crowd.
This month, La-Z-Boy UK has revealed a new logo as part of a rebrand, which honours the company’s history while also embracing the future. Drawing inspiration from the brand’s original 1927 logo, it combines heritage with a fresh, modern approach, and reflects comfort being at the core of La-Z-Boy’s brand DNA, helping the world unwind.
