Just Released: Newsleather Edition 7 – April 2025


Available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese


In this latest edition of IULTCS Newsleather, we highlight the importance of test method standardization in the leather industry — a critical foundation for quality, compliance, and international trade.


Featuring insights from Dr. Giancarlo Lovato, IULTCS ISO Committee Manager, this edition explains how the IULTCS collaborates with ISO and CEN to develop, revise, and publish leather-specific test methods that shape the industry’s technical backbone.

 

What you’ll find inside:

  • Full overview of the IUC, IUP, and IUF test methods
  • Details on which are official ISO, EN, and IULTCS-only standards
  • Updates on new and revised methods as of April 2025
  • Links to download IULTCS methods and purchase ISO versions

 

Whether you’re in testing, product development, compliance, or R&D — this edition is a must-read.
