THE RESPONSIBLE PRODUCTION OF CLOTHING FROM THE FINEST LEATHER AND SHEEPSKINS HAS BEEN OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE TO WERNER CHRIST SINCE THE COMPANY WAS FOUNDED IN 1954.
In view of the developments on our planet, responsible use of resources while preserving natural cycles is essential.
WERNER CHRIST has always attached great importance to environmentally friendly production with as little waste as possible. The company operates an incineration plant and has planted 550,000 eucalyptus trees in its own forests. The waste water is treated in the company's own sewage treatment plant in accordance with German regulations.
The tannery has once again been awarded the ECOL (Energy Controlled Leather) label.
