What We Do

Our Mission

Environmental, Social and Economic responsibility are essential components for a sustainable industry. Our mission is to support the global leather value chain to learn, to improve and to protect for future generations, through the People ~ Planet ~ Profit principle.

“Let’s be the change that secures the future” – Deborah Taylor, Managing Director.

What We Do

We are industry led and consumer focused. At the heart of the foundation is our revolutionary, integrated, SLF Transparency Dashboard™. Our Dashboard is linked to an audit certification standard that assesses the compliance and performance of companies working within the leather value chain, against the three pillars of sustainability:

• Environmental
• Social
• Governance

Today’s society is more informed and more conscious of:

  1. the effects that production and consumption have on the earth’s natural resources and its ability to regenerate
  2. the negative impacts that can damage our ecosystem
  3. the importance of fair and humane treatment of workers
  4. the welfare of animals.
