SGS, the world’s leading inspection, verification,
testing and certification company, will host a complimentary webinar on October
15, 2020, to help those working in the leather and footwear industry understand
and tackle mold.
A significant issue for the leather and footwear industry,
mold can grow on almost any substance, but leather is an ideal food source.
This makes the footwear supply chain, its factories, storage sites and
transportation, ideal locations for the fungus to grow and thrive.
In addition, mold takes time to develop, which often
means that the party blamed for allowing it to multiply is not always
responsible. However, once mold has appeared it’s important to treat it to
avoid damage to products.
Why join this webinar?
The impact of mold growth is extra cost, which may
include the cost of mold treatment, late deliveries, loss of sales, brand
reputation or product recalls. This webinar will be of particular interest to
those involved in the leather and footwear industries with responsibility for
quality control.
The webinar will be led by SGS’s industry expert, Paul
Bridge, Deputy VP CRS Global Footwear and Leather. Paul will focus on the
causes of mold, share experiences and explore prevention methods.
