How to Start
Leather Production,
Processing & Tannery
Business
Leather Industry has been one of the traditional industries
operating at present. The hides and skins of animals are the
source of leather and preserving hides and tanning them
into leather has become an important industry. Leather-
making is now a scientifically based industry, but still retains
some of the charm and mystery of the original craft. Animal
skin that has been processed to retain its flexibility,
toughness, and waterproof nature is known as leather.
"Leather tanning" is a general term for the numerous
processing steps involved in converting animal hides or skins
into finished leather.

Tanning is the final process in turning hides and skins into
leather. Tanning involves a complex combination of
mechanical and chemical processes. The heart of the
process is the tanning operation itself in which organic or
inorganic materials become chemically bound to the
protein structure of the hide and preserve it from
deterioration. The main chemical processes carried out by
the tanner are the unhairing, liming, tanning, neutralizing
and dyeing.

In the tanning process, animal hides and skins are treated
to remove hair and nonstructured proteins and fats, leaving
an essentially pure collagen matrix. The hides are then
preserved by impregnation with tanning agents. Leather
production usually involves three distinct phases:
preparation (in the beamhouse); tanning (in the tanyard);
and finishing, including dyeing and surface treatment. A
wide range of processes and chemicals, including chrome
salts, is used in the tanning and finishing processes.
This indispensable handbook provides a detailed insight into
the leather industry, leather processing and tanning
technology with manufacturing of different forms of leather
products. The book contains the manufacturing process of

book will be very helpful to its readers, upcoming

Leather has had a universal appeal from time immemorial.
The manufacture of leather is one of the oldest
technological professions. Leather Industry occupies a
place of prominence in the Indian economy in view of its
massive potential for employment, growth and exports.
There has been increasing emphasis on its planned
development, aimed at optimum utilization of available raw
materials for maximizing the returns, particularly from
exports.

The leather industrial sector comprises of:
a) Tanneries (where raw hides and skins are converted into
leather)
b) Factories transforming leather into a variety of consumer
products such as footwear, garments and outerwear, and
assorted leather goods such as wallets, passport cases, key
chains, handbags and brief cases.
Apart from the quality of raw material, the process of its
conversion into leather and, later, of the design, product
development and process of manufacture, of products play a
key role in adding value to it.

Indian leather industry is one among the top 8
industries for export revenue generation in India,
holding 10% of the global raw material, and 2% of
the global trade. India enjoys competitive
benefits such as availability of abundant raw
material, cheap and skilled labor, supporting
institutions for industrial developments, and
supportive domestic market.
