Work starts on new University of Northampton leather centre
10/08/2018
Commenting on the development, ICLT director, Rachel Garwood, said: “Our relocation to the university’s new Waterside Campus will be fantastic for both staff and students, providing them with cutting-edge facilities. These new facilities will enhance our teaching, training and research, all of which are crucial in supporting the global leather industry. Our reputation for being a leading global leather institute will continue to grow, which is something Northampton should be proud of.”
The new building will include a leather innovation lab (housing the ICLT tannery), testing and research labs, teaching space and rooms for commercial organisations to rent, with the tenants having access to the wider facilities.
