Webinar Replay: 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 the session, Gustavo Adrián Defeo, Scientific Director of CTC Ars Tinctoria and a recognised expert in leather chemistry with more than 30 years of international experience, demonstrated how digital tools can transform chemical management into a more efficient and reliable process. Drawing on his extensive expertise in analytical testing, chemical auxiliaries, regulatory compliance, restricted substances and PFAS, he shared practical insights and concrete examples to help companies strengthen compliance while improving operational performance.
