05/09/2017
Among the ideas that leather chemicals manufacturer Stahl had on display at the 2017 All China Leather Exhibition in Shangai was a recently expanded portfolio for leather finishing, with all solutions complying with or exceeding the requirements of the ZDHC manufacturing restricted substance list targets for 2020.

Stahl said it is “continuously looking for ways to achieve a more sustainable leather supply chain” and that its new leather finishing products tie in with that. In addition to a new range of water repellents that are both PFC-free and BTX-free, it had new milling chemicals and a complete range of upgrading solutions on show in Shanghai.

“High-quality raw material is becoming increasingly difficult to source,” the company said. “We have developed a complete range of upgrading solutions for leather that enables tanners and manufacturers to improve leather quality.”
