UNIC begins leather promotion campaign

16/01/2020
Italian tanning industry body UNIC has begun a three-year global campaign to promote Italian leather. It announced the idea in the autumn.

Its core message, revealed in a statement in early January is: ‘Real leather is real sustainability’. Its aim is to have a highly visual campaign to demonstrate what UNIC calls “the many clear sustainability advantages of Italian leather”.

It will also take on the task of challenging what it calls “paradoxical accusations” leather faces from some campaign groups, based, UNIC insists, on incorrect assumptions and, at times “bordering on the ridiculous”.
