Accurate co-branding strengthens a brand’s sustainability story, but claims must be precise — for example, LWG certifies a tannery’s environmental management, not the leather itself, so the wording should reflect what the certification actually covers.
ISA Next-Gen Materials supplies the certification status, LITE Index figures, and traceability documentation brands need to phrase claims accurately and back them if challenged by a retailer or regulator.
