How leather is made
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Leather is one of the earliest crafts, dating back thousands of years. The hides and skins come from many parts of the world to be used in realizing car interiors, sofas and armchairs. To keep it always smooth and nice, you have to take care of it.

Who would have thought this entire process from receiving the original skins to the finished product was this complex? I have always loved leather and now clearly see why it is priced accordingly. It gives one a whole new perspective and appreciation when putting on your favorite leather jacket.

This particular tannery produces rather mediocre leather, quantity rather than quality. High end leather such as vegetable tanned, uses other, more skilled techniques.
I am always amazed by the people who design the huge machines used in the processing of leather.

Im surprised that the skill and hard work of the slaughtermen involved in this process wasn't mentioned..The amount of skill it takes to do this is really under apreciated . For example if a slaughterman angles his knife a few degrees the wrong way can easily damage this , at this stage very fragile hide. Then the hides classification is reduced as is the price. One knifemark in the wrong place can half the price of a hide. So thumbs up to the under apreciated men on the front line.

That is done in the abattoir not by the tannery. Most well equipped abattoirs strip the hides from the carcass, not by knives, but by clamps attached either side of the neck which are then hydraulically or electrically pulled down, stripping the hide off the carcase in one smooth operation taking only 4-5 seconds.

This is a very condensed and simplified view of the tanning process,chrome leather takes up to 18 days from desalting to finishing, since we work with a natural product the process and formulation of chemicals has to be adjusted on a regular basis to obtain a uniform product in texture,color, physical properties,not an easy task.I 'm glad I'm retired, I worked as a technician for over 40 years.

What a great and informative video, the only downside is that when the narrator pays appreciation to the processes he leaves out the appreciation for the product, leaving out the gratitude for animals. I think they deserve at least an ounce of acknowledgement for their sacrifice. That’s all.

I worked in a Tannery in finishing dept. ran Staking machine, each hide at a time done by one individual and the staking machine was scary with big arms coming down on the hide. you did not get your hands in there or they were gone. and the buffing machines where two rollers traveling oppocite each other one hide at a time. the dyeig was done by hand "Swabbing" it was called. long swabs. made of wood and wool kind of banna shaped. were dipped in to big pan/basins of dye, and then swabbed onto the leather, then ran thru a dryer. Did lots of other jobs there too!. not a fun time in my life. But we all had to make a living didn't we.

I now have a greater appreciation for my leather jackets, it takes a lot of work to get them right. There is nothing more metal in clothing than wearing skin from something dead! Now, if you're a person who doesn't listen to heavy music then I can understand how bad that last bit may sound. I promise I'm not a horrible human being in real life lol Most of us aren't. We are already killing the animal for meat, might as well salvage the rest of the animal for other uses than just throwing it to waste.
