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

HS code 410632 covers tanned or crust hides and skins of swine, 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 a key raw material for the production of a wide range of leather goods, from apparel and footwear to upholstery and automotive interiors. The trade in these crust hides and skins is an important component of the broader import/export activities that facilitate the flow of goods and materials across international borders.

Production process

The production of tanned or crust hides and skins under HS code 410632 typically involves a multi-step process. After the swine hides are collected, they undergo a series of treatments, including soaking, liming, deliming, bating, pickling, and tanning. These processes remove hair, fat, and other unwanted materials, and transform the raw hides into a stable, durable crust material that can be further processed or traded as a commodity.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 410632 items include the raw swine hides, as well as various chemicals and equipment used in the tanning and crust-making processes. These may include tanning agents, such as chromium salts or vegetable tannins, as well as machinery for hide processing, drying, and finishing. Additionally, access to a reliable supply of water and energy sources is crucial for the efficient operation of this industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 410632 is the tanned or crust hides and skins of swine, which can then be further processed and transformed into a wide range of leather products. These crust materials may be consumed by industries covered under other HS codes, such as 410711 (Leather of bovine or equine animals, without hair on, in the wet state (including wet-blue)), 410712 (Leather of bovine or equine animals, without hair on, in the dry state (crust)), and 420500 Other articles of leather or of composition leather, among others.
