EUDR e Tracciabilità: Una Nuova Sfida per la Filiera del Fashion Luxury

30/10/2025

In recent years, sustainability and supply chain transparency have become strategic priorities for companies, driven by growing consumer awareness and increasingly stringent regulations. Among these, the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) marks a turning point for all industries that rely on raw materials potentially harmful to ecosystems, introducing new standards for due diligence and traceability.

What is EUDR?

The EUDR is a European regulation aimed at combating global deforestation linked to the production of raw materials such as wood, cocoa, coffee, rubber, soy, palm oil, and cattle. Companies placing products derived from these materials on the EU market must demonstrate that:

  • They do not originate from areas deforested after 2020.

  • They comply with the local laws of the country of origin.

  • They are accompanied by a due diligence statement. 

Starting from December 30, 2025, businesses will be required to ensure geographical traceability of raw materials and provide documented evidence of compliance. 

Focus: The Impact on the Leather Goods Sector

In the world of fashion luxury, the leather goods sector is particularly affected, as bovine leather is among the regulated raw materials. This entails: 

  • The need to map the entire supply chain, from raw material to finished product.
  • The management of certifications that prove compliance with the regulation (DDS – Due Diligence Standard) 
  • The obligation to trace production batches and link the information to individual items. 

The impact of this regulation on the fashion industry goes beyond the leather goods sector. Since rubber and wood are also among the regulated materials, other product categories will be affected as well first and foremost, footwear manufacturing
