Four decades of leather, lacquer and second opinions.

Our journey into automotive customisation and craftsmanship began in the 1980s when Henri Leong Son started Compil Ltd, a family owned company specialising in leather works. Bringing with him his experience working at Bata Ltd for over 15 years, Henri Leong Son decided to focus on the fabrication of leather gloves. Compil Ltd employed over 100 people meticulously assembling and moulding leather gloves which were then exported to France. Using industry experience gathered over the best part of two decades, the company thrived in the developing economy of Mauritius.

Five years after its inception, the company decided to expand its range of services to start producing quality leather footwear for 5★ hotels across Mauritius. Compil Ltd managed to secure contracts from famous hotels such as The St Regis, Maritim, Hilton and many more. The company always focused on quality and craftsmanship behind their product offerings as they believed it was the one thing that differentiated them from their competitors. The company earned various awards from LIRI (Leather Industrial Research Institute) and was eventually manufacturing leather footwear for the Mauritian Police force.

Following his passion for the automotive industry, Laval Leong Son decided to build upon his father Henri's entrepreneurial experience and started Speedline Auto Ltd in 1999. The start wasn't easy and required a lot of work transitioning to a new industry.

Speedline Auto Ltd initially started experimenting with a variety of offerings such as importation of bodykits and automotive accessories. The company started building relationships with automotive dealerships across the island and slowly implementing itself as a major supplier of automotive services across Mauritius.

As the luxury automotive industry grew rapidly in the early 2000s, the company focused its efforts towards its core aptitudes: leather upholstery. The growth of the business reached new heights when it secured an Italian luxury leather upholstery plant as a prominent supplier. Under a new name, Signature Cars Ltd, the company focused all its efforts to become the best leather upholstery supplier across Mauritius.

The company's vision for the future of the automotive industry became crystal clear when it managed to secure Leal & Co. Ltd, official representative of BMW Mauritius, as a major client. Allowing them to improve their supply chain and lower their costs while providing high-end custom leather upholstery to their clients, a key area in their business development at the time. Signature Cars Ltd continues to develop their automotive related services to this day.

Following up on the company's heritage of craftsmanship, Signature Cars Ltd subsidiary company, Details. by Signature saw the day under Warren Leong Son. Details was created out of true passion for automotive customisation. We believed in enabling people to express themselves through their cars. Details. is able to achieve this by providing car enthusiasts in Mauritius a higher level of customisation than was ever previously available on the market.

Details' mission was simple: “Making the best, better.” Attending trainings and seminars across the world (America, Singapore, UK, Dubai, Germany and many more), Details aims to push the boundaries of what the Mauritian market has previously seen before. Building upon its relationship with the best automotive dealerships of Mauritius, Details got the opportunity to work with the most expensive cars that have ever touched Mauritian soil.

With Details. by Signature still in its infancy, our company is highly customer centric. We strive to let your personality shine through in the way you express yourself through your car. We work hard to keep close relationships with our clients who continue to trust us with their vehicles in order to bring them something truly exceptional.
