Follow the link for the fifth report from the current Tannery of the Year programme. This time, we focus on automotive leather supplier GST, which has three production sites in Mexico. We also hear some remarkable stories about the company’s employees; it is clear there is something special about the way GST treats its people.
A fascinating technical section includes the latest in a series of technical articles about the greenLIFE project that launched in Arzignano in 2014, as well as a closer look at the challenges posed to the leather industry by different chemical standards.
We also include detailed papers from two leading leather chemicals manufacturers, BASF and Lanxess, and provide readers with an in-depth review of June’s Freiberg Leather Days conference.
In our Beast to Beauty feature, we shine the spotlight on US leathergoods company Saddleback, which donates a considerable chunk of its earnings to charitable causes. Like GST AutoLeather, Saddleback also believes the welfare of its employees is crucial to its success.
