Introduction
This document has been developed to define processes of preservation that lead to higher quality
of preserved hides. Such preserved hides are subsequently subjected to further treatments for
manufacturing of leather and eventually for production of leather goods.
This document has indicated preservation procedures that should be followed to prevent either of the
following situations:
— conditions occurring through the preservation treatments which affect the processability of hides;
— various defects that can form on hides due to inadequate preservation conditions and during the
period of storage and delivery to users.
