Avoca Tanners (manufacturers) search results

Tanning companies and tanned product manufacturers specialize in tanning the hides and skins of animals to make durable products like leather and suede. Tanners expose pelts and skins to chemicals known as tannins in order to make the hide more durable and to protect it against decomposition. Some tanners use animal tannins or vegetable tannins to tan hides while other tanners use chemical tannins such as chrome solutions to tan hides. Most American tanners tan the hides of cows in order to make leather and suede. These tanners then sell the leather and suede they tanned to clothing and upholstery companies. Some tanners can tan hides brought into them by hunters. These smaller tanning shops can often tan elk hides, deer hides, moose hides, and bison hides. Sometimes tanners tan the hides of more exotic animals such as zebras and water Buffalo.
