About tanned or crust hides and skins; of goats or kids, without hair on, whether or not split, but not further prepared, in the dry state (crust)

HS code 410622 covers tanned or crust hides and skins of goats or kids, without hair on, whether or not split, but not further prepared, in the dry state (crust). This industry plays a crucial role in the global leather supply chain, providing raw materials for the production of a wide range of leather goods, from apparel and footwear to upholstery and accessories. The demand for these products is driven by the growing consumer appetite for sustainable and ethically sourced leather products, as well as the continued growth of industries such as fashion, automotive, and furniture manufacturing.

Production process

The production of tanned or crust hides and skins under HS code 410622 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw hides or skins are collected from goat or kid farms and transported to tanneries. At the tannery, the hides undergo a series of pre-tanning processes, including soaking, liming, and dehairing, to remove any remaining hair, flesh, and impurities. The hides are then tanned, either using vegetable-based or chrome-based tanning agents, to stabilize the collagen fibers and impart the desired properties. Finally, the tanned hides are dried and processed into the crust state, where they are ready for further finishing or use in various leather products.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of tanned or crust hides and skins under HS code 410622 include raw goat or kid hides, tanning agents (such as vegetable extracts or chromium salts), water, and various chemicals and auxiliaries used in the pre-tanning and tanning processes. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment, such as drums, mills, and drying facilities, are essential for the efficient and consistent processing of the hides.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 410622 is tanned or crust hides and skins of goats or kids, which can be further processed and used in the production of a wide range of leather goods. These crust hides and skins may be consumed by industries such as 410712 (Leather further prepared after tanning or crusting, including parchment-dressed leather, of bovine (including buffalo) or equine animals, without hair on), 420310 Articles of apparel of leather or of composition leather, and 940161 Seats with wooden frames, upholstered, among others, depending on the specific requirements and applications of the final leather products.
