Sustainable Leather Foundation has created a suite of tools designed to support the leather value chain in the their sustainability journey.
Our suite of tools comprise:
- SLF Audit Standard Report (ASR) – 3 Modules for Environmental, Social and Governance. Each module can be treated individually or worked on together as one complete package.
- SLF Standards and Benchmarks – the foundation upon which the Audit Standard is assessed. These documents should be read in conjunction with the ASR.
- Explanatory Notes and Templates – helpful information to support and guide companies in how to answer the audit questions in the ASR.
