Wet Salted & Dry Salted Donkey & Cow Hides – Wet Salted Cow Hides

Hides are shipped as Wet-Salted (Brine-Cured), Dry-Salted and Dry. These methods of preservation are effective for fairly long periods, provided that the curing or drying has been satisfactorily carried out, and conditions of storage and transit have not caused the curing or drying to become ineffective.

Climatic conditions at the time of preparation may have some bearing upon the condition and appearance at destination, e.g. , skins which have been salted and dried in the heat of the summer may tend to become somewhat overdried and although not damaged are liable to be broken or torn if roughly handled, more particularly in the case of a poor type of skin. Surveys should be called before the skins have been put to work and thereby lost their identity.

The surveyor has a better opportunity of examining skins in the original bales and thus of ascertaining the cause and extent of the damage.

We guarantee the highest quality product and all hides are subject to the strictest quality control.
