COTANCE - Leather Booth in Rome

Leather booth at the FAO Global Conference on Sustainable Livestock Transformation and Global Forum for Animal Feed and Feed Regulators in Rome!


From a VR leather-making experience to leather in high-end fashion, this booth will be packed with inspiration — and with global leather industry leaders. Warning: our booth may turn you into a lifelong leather enthusiast 😉


Together with UNIC – Concerie Italiane (IT), Leather UK, Leather and Hide Council of America (USA), COTANCE (Europe) and other partners, CT will showcase the indispensable role of leather in the livestock ecosystem — by transforming slaughter residues (animals hides & skins) into a natural, durable and biodegradable material that serves society for decades.


And leather goes far beyond fashion. Tanners also turn process residues into collagen, gelatine, tallow, fertilisers, soil conditioners, Leatherfibreboard, and more — a true circular economy in action.


Intrigued? Join us on 29 September at 13h15, when the COTANCE Secretary General Gustavo Gonzalez-Quijano will explain why leather is essential to the livestock success story. Don’t forget to stop by our leather booth to grab some leather souvenirs!
