WORKEM
Chemical products for Tanneries
Innovation that embraces sustainability
Workem is a company that aims to develop and manufacture more sustainable products and systems for the tanning industry, both for the drum and for the finishing processes.
Drawing on a family tradition of more than 50 years, the company operates in respect of the environment and people’s health in order to obtain cutting-edge products in line with the trends and needs of the fashion industry, increasing its focus on environmental sustainability, without abandoning respect for purification rules and protocols.
Satisfying the client’s every need is the Workem company’s priority. This is why the company carries out intense research and development, with the aim of offering reliable solutions, innovative ideas, and novelties - both in terms of products and finished articles - for the footwear, leather goods, furnishing, apparel, and automotive sectors.
In addition to high product quality, the company’s strengths include technical support and comprehensive assistance offered to its clients for the development of articles, as well as maximum transparency and production traceability. Innovation and sustainability are among the Workem company’s founding values that find their expression in the development of eco-friendly projects that the company carries out for the treatment of leather. An example of this is Canapol, a bio-based tanning agent from the treatment of hemp seeds, for the production of Metal Free articles, that recovers waste from agricultural processing and renders products from polluted land reclamation innocuous, guaranteeing a performance equal to leather tanned with Chrome.
