After the initial tanning or crusting process, the leather undergoes additional treatments, such as dyeing, finishing, and polishing, to enhance its appearance, durability, and suitability for specific applications. These techniques help to improve the leather's physical properties, such as its texture, flexibility, and resistance to wear and tear.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of leather under HS code 4107 include raw hides or skins from bovine (including buffalo) or equine animals, as well as various chemicals, dyes, and finishing agents. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment, such as tanning drums, drying racks, and finishing machines, are essential for the leather production process.
