Chemicals group Stahl has opened a new laboratory in Japan, locating it in the Kanagawa Science Park near Tokyo. By Leatherbiz.
This facility, which covers 500 square-metres, marks “a significant next step” in Japan, the company said. It said it looked forward to using the laboratory “to co-innovate with customers” there.
The senior vice-president for global design at Nissan Motor Corporation, Alfonso Albaisa, was the guest speaker at the opening ceremony and shared what Stahl chief executive, Maarten Heijbroek (pictured), described as “visionary ideas” about the future of car interiors.
“He set an inspiring tone for our journey ahead,” Mr Heijbroek said.
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.
