UNIC – Italian Tanneries is the national trade association that promotes the interests of the Italian tanning sector, represents it at every institutional level, fosters innovation, enhances its social and environmental role, and provides specialized services and consultancy tailored to the needs of the industry.

Its flagship product — Italian leather — stands as the highest expression of stylistic innovation, technological development, and a distinctive commitment to quality, circularity, and responsibility.
