On announcing the initiative, Stahl’s director of sustainability, Mike Tomkin, said: “There is a demand for information and expert knowledge across the whole industry. Stahl possesses that expertise and we are happy to share it.” He pointed out that the company believes sharing its knowledge will help it strengthen relationships with tanners and with other players in the leather value chain.

The campus will work through training courses that can take place at Stahl locations around the world or at client premises.
