About hides and skins; raw, of swine, (fresh or salted, dried, limed, pickled or otherwise preserved, but not tanned, parchment-dressed or further prepared), whether or not dehaired or split

HS code 410330 covers the trade of raw, unprocessed swine hides and skins. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader leather and textile supply chains, providing essential raw materials for the production of a wide range of goods, from clothing and footwear to industrial products. As a key component of the agricultural and manufacturing sectors, the trade in swine hides and skins is an important contributor to the global economy.

Production process

The production of raw swine hides and skins typically involves the slaughter of pigs, followed by the removal and preservation of the hides. Common preservation methods include salting, drying, liming, or pickling, which help to prevent decomposition and prepare the hides for further processing. The hides may also be dehaired or split, depending on the specific requirements of the end-user.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of raw swine hides and skins include live pigs, which are the primary source of the raw material. Additionally, the preservation process requires access to salts, lime, and other chemicals, as well as the necessary equipment and facilities to handle and store the hides. Skilled labor is also an essential input, as the handling and processing of the hides requires specialized knowledge and expertise.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 410330 is raw, unprocessed swine hides and skins. These raw materials are then typically consumed by industries covered under other HS codes, such as 410411 Leather of bovine or equine animals, without hair on, whole hides and skins, 410419 Leather of bovine or equine animals, without hair on, other, including butts, bends and bellies, and 410510 Sheep or lamb skin leather, without wool on, which further process the hides and skins into finished leather products.
