16/10/2017
Leather chemicals company Stahl has opened a new application laboratory in Arzignano, one of the main leather manufacturing hubs in Italy.

The lab’s focus will be on leather for automotive, leathergoods, shoe uppers and upholstery. It will develop new technologies, create customised solutions matching the specific needs of customers and provide in-house training, Stahl said.

General manager for the company in Italy, Alberto Cantone, said the new facility would enable Stahl to “work side-by-side with our partners, sharing knowledge and creating a better future together”.

Mr Cantone added: “Our more sustainable leather solutions will be the key focus in our new lab. A new range of high-performance automotive leather finishing products, still in development, will play a pivotal role. Our experts will show that everything is possible and can be tailor-made.”
