Environmental Stewardship Auditing
With the rising profile and value of world brands there is an increasing need for environmental due diligence in the supply chain.

Leather Manufacturing Audits
Many retailers and brands conduct supplier audits but few visit the leather manufacturers as a routine. The auditing of a tannery for environmental impact is a specialist task due to the complex chemistries and the potential risks involved.

The Leather Working Group in conjunction with BLC has developed a standardised environmental auditing protocol to cover all the essential elements of environmental best practice management in a tannery. The auditing protocol and reporting mechanism has been developed in conjunction with major brands and gives a “one report fits all” approach to tannery environmental audits.

Footwear Manufacturing Audits
Adopting many of the principles developed through the Leather Working Group we can offer environmental stewardship audits of footwear manufacturers. For those brands that require assurances that their footwear suppliers utilise effective environmental stewardship audits this is an ideal solution.
