New materials, new production systems, certifications, conferences and fashion guides for ‘aware fashionists’: sustainability in footwear, leather goods and tannery sectors has a revolutionary impact.
Creeping into every crack, no closed door seems to be able to remain closed for much longer. Sustainability is now an absolutely pervasive theme, posed to renew products and markets as well as companies and research.
It is a type of innovation that is difficult to think of not coupled with the typical jolts of a revolution.
We talk about revolution when the ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) theme touches on finance, for example, an increasingly crucial element also in the fashion industry.
We talk about revolution when news arrives from laboratories, typically associated with scientific research, of cell cultures that could replace leather and fur derived from the slaughter of livestock.
We talk about revolution when a brand like ACBC focuses everything on sustainability and in just a few years trounces the market by activating prestigious collaborations and offering collections that are very interesting both in terms of aesthetics and eco-friendly content.
We talk about revolution when an entire area of a fair like Micam can be dedicated to sustainability - MICAM Green Zone - and present numerous projects from environmentally conscious brands.
Machines, materials, components and accessories, better if certified, even better if recycled or biodegradable… all look to sustainability as the horizon towards which to set their sails. It is up to you to discover the most interesting projects.
