LWG

The LWG certification is a hallmark for companies operating in the leather industry, especially tanneries. This award rewards all those companies, in the sector, which manage the environmental impact and sustainable economy from a system perspective.
The LWG certification, acronym of Leather Working Group, is the first environmental certification worldwide for the leather manufacturing industry. It is released by the same-named non-profit organization, with the ambitious goal of improving the environmental impact of the leather industry.
Certification is a flagship for the enterprise, a valuable investment and an opportunity. Certification shows, in fact, that the company is not focused on its business only, but that the company cares and is committed to ensuring greater sustainability of the entire industry.
Specifically, LWG identifies the best environmental practices in the industry and provides guidelines for continuous improvement. Thanks to the support of audit tools, the environmental performances of leather production plants are evaluated and those performances that meet certain standards are certified.
