Sustainability story of tanning

In times driven by futuristic innovation, the ancient craft of tanning stands as a timeless symbol of human craftsmanship. Each stage of the tanning process embodies a blend of tradition and innovation, creating a work of art. Leather's durability promotes sustainability, countering a disposable mindset and reminding us of the value in investing in and cherishing items for a lifetime.

Resource efficiency

Circular manufacturing process

Responsible resource management is integral to BADER's corporate philosophy and sustainability policy. Water is a crucial component in tanning and holds a central role in BADER's circular manufacturing process.


How we do

Water management

Balancing consumption and use

Water holds a pivotal role as a primary auxiliary material in BADER's tannery operations and respective circulation process. It is crucial to differentiate between water consumption and water use in this context. Water consumption means fresh water, for example, is taken from groundwater, used in production or consumed in the production process, and the remainder is discharged (purified) into a river or similar biotope. Water use means that water is taken, for example, from a river, used in production or used in the  production process, and then purified and returned to the original biotope via the wastewater treatment plant.
