Couroquímica will present the biodegradable leathers of the BioPelle registered trademark at Digital Inspiramais. With the same durability and quality as traditional leather, this sustainable product does not use heavy metals in the tanning process and decomposes a hundred times faster.

Flexible, soft and resistant, BioPelle, which combines the latest fashion trends with sustainability, will be a highlight among the innovations presented by the company at the fair, which will take place between August 25 and 27, on an exclusively digital platform.

Also in this event, Couroquímica will make new colors available to the market in several garments for prompt delivery. These leathers are developed based on the main trends in the footwear and accessories segment worldwide, based on a global survey led by the same creative team as the Carmen Steffens brand, which is part of the same business group.

Couroquímica serves all of Brazil and countries in America and Asia from its headquarters in Franca (SP). At its unit in Portugal, it serves all of Europe with ease in logistics and relationships.

Inspiramais is carried out by Centro das Indústrias de Curtume do Brasil [Brazilian Tannery Industries Center] (CICB), Associação Brasileira de Empresas de Componentes para Couro, Calçados e Artefatos [Brazilian association of leather, footwear and component companies] (Assintecal), Associação Brasileira da Indústria Têxtil e de Confecção [Brazilian association of textile and clothing industry] (Abit), Associação Brasileira das Indústrias do Mobiliário [Brazilian association of furniture industries]  (Abimóvel), Tex Brasil, By Brasil Components and Chemicals and the Brazilian Leather project, a partnership between CICB and Agência Brasileira de Promoção de Exportações e Investimentos [Brazilian export and investment promotion agency] (Apex-Brasil) to encourage leather exports.
