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 the trade of 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 essential raw materials for the production of a wide range of leather goods, from apparel and footwear to furniture and automotive interiors. The demand for these specialized hides and skins is driven by the growing global appetite for high-quality leather products, making this industry an important contributor to the broader economy.

Production process

The production of tanned or crust hides and skins under HS code 410622 involves a multi-step process. First, the raw hides and skins are collected from goat or kid farms and transported to tanneries. The hides and skins are then subjected to a series of treatments, including soaking, liming, and pickling, to remove any remaining hair, flesh, and other impurities. The tanning process, which can involve the use of vegetable tanning agents or chromium salts, then transforms the raw material into a stable, durable leather. Finally, the tanned hides and skins are dried and sorted, ready for further processing or sale in the crust state.

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 and skins, tanning agents (such as vegetable tannins or chromium salts), water, and specialized machinery for the various processing steps. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce, including tanners, sorters, and quality control personnel, to ensure the consistent production of high-quality leather materials.

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 are then used as inputs for a wide range of downstream industries.
