AQC - TCM Co-founding member
Multicuirs works closely with the Association pour l'Assurance Qualité des Fabricants de Bracelets Cuir (AQC), an international association under Swiss law comprising the five leading manufacturers of leather bracelets for fine watchmaking. These members represent over 80% of the world's production of high-end bracelets.
Common suppliers are required to sign an AQC specification, which includes commitments relating to professional ethics, in particular the duty of care, as well as social commitments, such as respect for human rights, employee rights, and health and safety at work. Multicuirs also undertakes to have its specific suppliers sign the same specifications.
In the case of tanneries, specifications must also be signed, and social audits are carried out by a third party. Traceability and chemical conformity are also taken into account, in line with the company's policy of environmental responsibility.
