Smit & Zoon joins Leather Working Group (LWG)
The objective of this multi-stakeholder group is to develop and maintain a protocol that assesses the compliance and environmental performance of tanners and promotes sustainable and appropriate environmental business practices within the footwear leather industry.
The reason that Smit & Zoon has become a member of this group is the fact that this gives us the possibility to join several of the world's top tanneries and other stake holders in their desire for long term developments.
Smit & Zoon is confident that the decision to become a member will benefit their long term strategy to become a leading partner for the world's top tanneries. Especially through their intense and dedicated focus to develop ‘green' chemicals like within the SAFETAN range.
