EU and Brazil align safety rules
A group of Brazilian leather and footwear machinery experts is visiting Europe in order to learn more about local safety standards which may be applicable to similar products made in Brazil.
The trip, which has been organised by the Brazilian Association of Leather, Footwear and Leathergoods Machinery and Equipment Manufacturers (ABRAMEQ), is part of the Support Project for International Insertion of Brazilian Small and Medium-sized Companies (PAIIPME), funded by the European Union and implemented by the Brazilian Agency for Industrial Development (ABDI), a body belonging to the Brazilian Ministry of Development, Industry and Foreign Trade (MDIC).
