Leather manufacturers across the world are currently producing between 23 billion and 24 billion square-feet of leather per year.

This was the figure the industry’s representative body in the European Union, COTANCE, gave at Lineapelle on February 21 at a workshop on a new project called Leatech. This project will consist of the development and delivery of a new master’s degree programme in innovative and sustainable leather technology for post-graduate students from around the world.
