An eco-friendly approach for sustainable waste management in the leather industry

Since 1992, the Selin company has been involved in the collection, management, and disposal of all types of waste - special, hazardous, and non-hazardous. The Selin company can help fashion industries to adopt virtuous activities that limit harmful consequences for the environment and result in significant savings for the company. And it does so through a complete environmental consultancy service, aimed at coaching the client in eco-friendly waste management, focusing on the correct and conscious division of waste, recovery of raw materials, and reduction of waste to be disposed of.

Leather waste that does not contain toxic substances or PVC, for example, can be used for fertiliser production. Instead of ending up in landfills, irretrievable textile scraps acquire new value through their use in the creation of acoustic panels and bricks for the construction industry. The company is also working to provide clients with a carbon footprint, which shows the total CO2 emissions associated with the company’s activities, with the possibility of offsetting them through membership of social and environmental projects.
