Skyeskyns turns to veg tanning
28/08/2019
The switch to this more traditional method of tanning is just one phase in their plans for further eco-friendly initiatives, with everything produced in the tanning stages to be composted and spread back into the Skyeskyns croft with the support of a series of reedbeds.
We spoke to the company for the June/July issue of World Leather, when Isabelle Florin told us of the move: “It’s been talked about for years and we are finally taking the plunge. This would give us the option of expanding production should we wish to.”
She added: “We want to be the best we can be and honour the beautiful place we live in.”
