Danish comfort shoes and leather brand Ecco (ECCO), after five years of research, announced the introduction of a new environment-friendly and water-saving tanning technology DriTan.


  

Tanning process

The history can be traced back to ten thousand years ago. The traditional tanning process needs a lot of water resources to complete.

according to

Leather industry

According to data collected by Leather Working Group, the annual global leather industry needs to consume 400 billion liters of water.

The use of the latest DriTan technology can achieve water-saving tanning, and plays an important role in saving water resources.

The principle of DriTan technology is to dye the skin after wetting the skin, and the printing and dyeing effect is made with the traditional tanning process.

Leather material

There is no difference in quality, color, wear resistance and production time.

Ecco not only has 2200 brand stores and 14 thousand outlets in the world, but also provides leather for other high-end brands.

To ensure the supply of products, Ecco needs 1 million 250 thousand tanned tanning products every year.

After using DriTan technology, each cowhide can save an average of 20 liters of water and save 25 million liters of water throughout the year, which can meet the daily water demand of 9000 people.

Ecco said that if the traditional tanning process is used, the tanneries set up in Holland will be pported to the landfill every year with up to 600 tons of waste and can be loaded with 40 waste trucks.

The application of DriTan technology not only saves a lot of water resources, but also greatly reduces the discharge of waste water and the use of chemical agents.

DriTan R & D is the first step towards water free leather making.

Millennial consumers attach great importance to environmental protection and corporate social responsibility. DriTan technology will win their trust.

DriTan technology is not only suitable for large tanneries, but also for small companies, says Thomas G gsig, director of Ecco application research.

The use of DriTan technology does not require additional equipment or purchase of new equipment.

Chemical preparation

The original tanning machine can fully meet the requirements of DriTan technology and will not increase the company's burden.

This weekend, Tokyo will host 2018.

World Water Resources Conference

(IWA World Water Congress & Exhibition).

During the conference, ECCO used DriTan technology to make classic models.

Special commemorative money will be on sale at Ginza, Tokyo.

Consumers are increasingly concerned about the brand's social responsibility and their contribution to environmental protection. This has prompted many brands to improve their manufacturing processes and develop more environmentally-friendly raw materials.
