General manager of Italian tanning industry association UNIC, Fulvia Bacchi, has said she is sure the fashion industry “will never give up on leather”.

In recent comments to fashion media in Italy, Ms Bacchi said UNIC kept a close eye on new materials that the fashion industry chooses to use in its products. She said the organisation pays particular attention if brands using these materials or their suppliers present the innovations in ways that are hostile to leather.
