Sustainability is a top agenda in both the business and public sector. In light of recent
sweeping changes in the worlds economy and the heightened attention of consumers awareness on sustainable production, the footwear industry and their supply
chains are now facing an increasing number of different challenges.
Challenges include product safety, quality, functionality and value for money as well
as environmentally and socially sustainable production of footwear products. From a
product safety and quality point of view, that includes VOCs issues with adhesives,
excessive chromium VI in leather and risk of phthalates in plastic accessories in
children footwear. Aspects of concerns during the productions include environmental
management of the production facilities and workers occupational health & safety.
As the results of these stakeholders demands, brands, retailers and their supply
chains are required to become more transparent, secure and efficient.
