Our bespoke services

Greenhouse gas (GHG) footprint

Greenhouse gas assessments have become a common exercise for companies to meet regulatory reporting requirements, customer expectations, or as part of a voluntary commitment to measure and reduce their emissions.

CTC can support you throughout the entire process of determining your organisation’s GHG footprint: from data collection to final modelling, adapting the service to your needs (specific products, number of sites, etc.).

This service follows the official Bilan Carbone® methodology for carbon accounting.

New materials 

Material selection plays a crucial role in the manufacture of leather and textile products.  It not only determines the durability of the product, but also influences consumer perception and purchasing decisions.

In recent years, new so-called emerging materials have appeared on the market. But are they really suited to the needs of our industry?

Alternative materials

To answer this question, our experts can provide tailored consultancy services including materials information gathering, performance assessment, and processability testing.
