17/09/2019
At the Sustainable Leather Forum in Paris on September 16, Hermès’s managing director for artisan leathergoods and saddlery, Emmanuel Pommier, said that the company’s use of digital cutting systems and other advanced technology has allowed it to use 11% less leather to make the same volume of products. But he added: “We remain absolutely committed to this material that has made our business what it is.”
He went on to say that leather has a positive future, describing it as “a starting point for the circular economy”.
