The Italian association of leather, footwear and leather goods machinery manufacturers, Assomac unveiled its latest plans to offset carbon by planting trees on the island of Madagascar, reports ILM from Milan.
Known as the Assomac Forest the project aims to offset CO2eq by planting more than 500 trees on the island of Madagascar and help bring social and environmental benefits to local communities. The trees have absorbed more than 64,000kg/CO2 in the past year according to Assomac.
During a dinner held in Milan, the association presented several media partners, including ILM, with a certificate to plant five more trees to help offset more carbon.
We bring leather, material and fashion businesses together: an opportunity to meet and greet face to face. We bring them from all parts of the world so that they can find fresh partners, discover new customers or suppliers and keep ahead of industry developments.
We organise a number of trade exhibitions which focus on fashion and lifestyle: sectors that are constantly in flux, so visitors and exhibitors alike need to be constantly aware both of the changes around them and those forecast for coming seasons.
