Sustainability: the way we approach our craft
Working with hides means making decisions every day. Some shape the leather’s performance. Others shape the impact we have on people, resources and the environment.
Every decision leaves its mark
Sustainability is not something that comes at the end of the process. It is present in the origin of our raw materials, the chemicals we select, the water we treat, the energy we use and the way we approach our craft.
That is why our commitment is structured around four areas that span every aspect of Curtidos Badia’s activity: responsible sourcing, environmental impact, people and governance, and transparency.
Four areas that turn commitment into action
Environment
We do more than reduce our impact. We work to measure, control and continuously improve it through responsible management of water, energy, chemicals and resources.
People
Sustainability also depends on the people behind every hide. We foster a safe working environment, continuous training and responsible relationships throughout our value chain.
Governance
Trust is built on clear standards, independent audits and transparent decisions. Our management system turns commitments into verifiable procedures.
Traceability and animal welfare
We work with verified suppliers and apply responsible, local sourcing criteria that ensure traceability and respect for animal welfare.
Our processes are assessed by independent organizations that verify compliance with international standards for environmental management, responsible chemistry, traceability and corporate responsibility.
Working for brands that demand more
We share information, audits and documentation whenever required, because we believe sustainability is also about building trust.
