Tanning Tech to focus on sustainable production

23/05/2012
The organisers of the Tanning Tech exhibition in Bologna have said the 2012 edition of the event, which takes place from October 9-11, will focus on technological innovation, which they describe as crucial to the development of a more sustainable production system to “alleviate the risks of climate change linked to the exploitation of fossil fuels”.

In recent years, the concept of sustainability has become the core focus for tanning machinery manufacturers, they said, adding that Tanning Tech 2012 will offer vision and a meeting-point for tanners interested in process development and in emerging technology.
