HASHTAG SRL
ECOTAN, the bio-circular line ABOUT
ABOUT
In a general period of stagnation for the leather goods and fashion industry, the Hashtag company is going against the trend and, in the first months of 2024, recorded a 30% increase in turnover compared to the previous year. These excellent results support the company’s expansion policy, which by the end of the year plans to acquire a new 2,500 m2 production facility and hire new staff. The Hashtag company specialises in the production of suede splits, both chrome tanned and metal free, for the big names in footwear, leather goods, and apparel. Quality and care for the environment are the values that guide the company’s work.
FOCUS
ECOTAN Bio-Circular Tanning, a 100% vegetable, bio-circular, and metal-free line is prominent among the Hashtag company’s proposals. Through an acid hydrolysis process, ECOTAN technology gives new life to leather waste by transforming it into organic fertiliser for agriculture, which becomes a part of an infinite cycle, to all intents and purposes. The Hashtag company is investing to further improve the line in terms of look and has expanded the range of colours available, ranging from natural shades to pastels. ECOTAN was chosen by emerging brand Sneark, which produces running shoes with 100% recyclable materials.
