Qualities of responsibly sourced leather

Francis Tsang on LinkedIn: socially and environmentally responsible Tibetan yak leather value chain can have significant benefits for both local communities and the environment.


Saying No to Plastic while opting for Responsibly Sourced Leather is a decisive step towards sustainability. Making informed choices can reduce our environmental impact, promote ethical practices, and support a healthier planet for future generations.


Leather is a natural material, and when sourced responsibly, it can be more sustainable than synthetic and vegan plant-based or plastic alternative options, which often rely on fossil fuels. High-quality leather products are long-lasting, reducing the need for frequent replacements and minimizing waste.


Choosing leather from ethical sources can support local artisans and communities, contributing to economic sustainability.
