Label, strive for International

Leather contract modification and other aspects of the work done and problems.

Progress in leather labeling

In promoting the definition of leather labels and leather in various countries and regions, it calls on Member States to promote the designation of labelling laws and avoid qualified materials being "synthetic leather" or "artificial leather".

At present, the EU, Italy, Spain, France, South Africa, Columbia, Brazil and the United States have already specified the regulations for the use of leather. At the same time, China has also introduced the certification of leather logo, especially for the leather logo eco leather, which also stipulates the requirements of environmental protection and cleaner production.

The above work has played a very important role in protecting leather industry.

Revision of raw material contract work is still a priority.

Over the past three years, three member representatives from China, Taiwan, China and Italy have actively proposed amendments to the raw material contract and received the high attention of ICT members.

Requirements for modification include: raw material skin.

In the process, the difference of the number of 1% is changed to 0%, the weight loss allowance of wet blue is changed from 5% to 2%, and the range of single sheet leather should not exceed 15% of the contract stipulations.

In this regard, ICT and ICHSLTA have been negotiating several times. Although no consensus has been reached, it has already played a certain role in raw material suppliers.

Bai Zhixiang, chairman of the world's Taiwan leather industry association, was elected chairman of new ICT.

The new president was elected by vote. Bai Zhixiang, President of the world leather industry association, was elected ICT's new chairman.

The current chairman, Rino Mastrotto, chairman of the Italy Leather Association, has resigned from office and has acknowledged and appreciated the work done during his two-year term.

Bai Zhixiang said that in the next two years, it will work hard to unite the world leather industry colleagues and carry out more communication and cooperation with other international leather organizations to better protect the trade rules and leather materials status.
