Register for the webinar - Digitalizing Chemical Management: From Obligation to an Efficient Process

Blog post / Posted in News on 2026-09-17 by Alison Burel

Many companies still rely on paper documents, static PDFs and spreadsheets to manage chemical information, making data difficult to access, update and share efficiently across the supply chain. To help tanneries, chemical suppliers and brands address these challenges, CTC has developed a dedicated digital platform that centralises chemical information and automates compliance management workflows. By digitalising the entire process, organisations can improve transparency, reduce manual work, facilitate collaboration and make faster, more informed decisions.

During this webinar, Gustavo Adrián Defeo, scientific director of CTC Ars Tinctoria, a recognised leather chemistry expert with more than 30 years of international experience in analytical testing, chemical auxiliaries and regulatory compliance, will demonstrate how digital tools can transform chemical management into a more efficient and reliable process. Renowned for his work on restricted substances and PFAS, and actively involved in international scientific and standardisation committees, Gustavo will share practical insights on how companies can strengthen compliance while improving operational efficiency.
