AAQTIC celebrates success of national symposium

17/12/2010
The Argentine Leather Industry Chemists and Technicians Association (AAQTIC) held its third national technical symposium at the end of November in Buenos Aires. The event was aimed at technicians in the tanning industry to provide an update on the most recent progress made in this area.

Many of the papers presented were specific to the market in Argentina and dealt with tanning processes, controls, raw materials, by-products and other issues related to the leather value chain, such as producing leather from chilled hides and finished product design.

More than 150 people took part in the event, including a number of delegates from Uruguay, Brazil, Paraguay, and a speaker from Germany, Dr Dietrich Tegtmeyer, vice-president of the leather business unit at specialty chemicals firm Lanxess.
