Fatliquor - pickle, chrome tanning and retanning
GREIBOSOL STS
GREIBOSOL STS can be used to impart a very good inner softness and a silky handle to a variety of leathers because of its good exhaustion, fixation and distribution in the leathers. Leathers, which have been fatliquored with GREIBOSOL STS are especially resistant to yellowing caused by heat and light, thereby making it suitable for white and pastel-coloured leathers. GREIBOSOL STS has positive effects on the dispersion of natural fats in the leather, on the shade brightness and cleanness of dyeings.
