Rawhide dealers - Skin collectors
A slaughterhouse slaughters everything. Animals of every kind and age. Therefore rawhides in the slaughterhouse vary. Tanneries specialize in certain types of leather. Slaughterhouses and tanneries also have different capacities.
After the slaughterhouse, the skins do not go directly to the tannery. Rawhide dealers or skin collectors buy the hides, sort them by species, sex (the car industry uses exclusively bull skins) and weight (affects the size of the skin). The rawhide dealer cuts the edges of the rawhide skins and preserves them.
Earlier local slaughterhouses and butchers slaughtered. Today, the meat industry is dominated by large farms. Due to the size of these farms and the greater demand for hides by the growing car industry, rawhide dealers and agro companies are in a strong position.
Raw material prices are rising steadily, and the tanneries and leather traders have the problem of pushing through constant price increases and price fluctuations on the market. If prices rise too much, manufacturers switch to substitution materials such as fabrics or synthetic leather.
The quality of the hides is different depending on the bovine species, origin, sex, age, nutrition and type of livestock farming. Tanneries must strive with a great deal of effort to secure supplier sources, which deliver consistently good quality. Leather with bad characteristics or many skin damages can quickly ruin the calculation.
The unfulfillable desire of every tannery are Rawhides without natural markings.
