Leather Logo Eco Leather &Nbsp; The Low Carbon Economy Era'S Tide Maker.

The greatest impact of low carbon economy on leather industry comes from a profound revolution of consumer terminals.

It is understood that in order to adapt to the global low carbon consumption trend, a large number of large international retailers have begun to adjust their product strategies. For example, WAL-MART requires all products to test their carbon content. "Carbon labelling" has become a hot word; TESCO, the third largest retailer in the world, is pushing low carbon products and low carbon lifestyle.

TESCO's "Sustainable Consumption Research Institute," which is invested by University of Manchester at 25 million pounds, devoted to studying how to reduce carbon dioxide emissions without meeting consumer demand and meet the demand of people pursuing a better life - "zero carbon consumption".

TESCO's approach is to take the lead in the UK to manage carbon emission throughout the retail supply chain, starting from the source of the retail supply chain, namely, the process of raw materials collection and manufacturing, to control carbon emission reduction.

To integrate into this trend or to be eliminated by the tide, we must make a choice.

However, as in the third world leather industry cooperation and development forum, Roeland Smets, chairman of the European footwear industry association, said: "in this industry, if we want to survive, we must be able to change at any time, respond at any time, and face the development of the whole industry with a flexible attitude, with the intention of consumers and their preferences as the direction of future development."

Perhaps, based on the respect and understanding of consumer preferences, eco leather is recognized as the next development trend in the industry. Experts also predict that eco leather will become a trend maker in the era of low carbon economy.

Since 2002, since the China Leather Association officially launched the leather logo eco leather, under the strict screening and examination system management, the leather label eco leather enterprise has increased to 35, and its product market share has reached 12.5%. Only in January 2009, 3 enterprises joined the "ecological leather" family, these facts are good evidence for the development trend of ecological leather.

"We have full confidence in the prospects of eco leather products.

From the perspective of national macro orientation, ecological civilization has become one of the four cornerstones of our party building and material civilization, spiritual civilization and political civilization.

From the point of view of consumers, most of the leather consumer groups have strong purchasing power, and at the same time, they are also well educated and environmentally conscious people. Therefore, judging from their consumption expectation and tendency, there is definitely a market for eco-friendly leather.

Peng Xiancheng, general manager of Desalle, said.

In addition to the development trend of ecological leather, from a large environment, low carbon economy will also penetrate into every chain of leather industry chain, changing every link of the chain, from leather products from upstream to leather production enterprises to downstream products processing enterprises.

The introduction of a newly fashionable word "carbon footprint" to trace the carbon footprint of leather products and reduce carbon emissions will be a very complex project, requiring coordination and cooperation and concerted efforts in all aspects.

However, we firmly believe that in the era of low carbon economy, green, ecology and environmental protection are productive forces, that is, competitive advantage, which is the social responsibility of enterprises. This basic consensus will become the main theme of the development of low carbon economy in leather industry and guide the industry to a bright future.
