We have developed extremely valuable solutions at a technical, technological and market level
by using hydrolysed and ground industrial leather waste.

These were introduced in biopolymeric coating formulations to produce innovative and functional water and bio-based coating formulations, such as pastes and foams, that were applied on textile substrates to obtain new textile solutions.
