Slovakia-based leather manufacturer SlovTan has said it has now found downstream supply chain partners for all of its solid tanning residues, meaning none of its trimmings, shavings or off-cuts go to waste.

Larger off-cuts of finished leather that the Liptovský Mikuláš-based company cannot use go to partners for use in small leathergoods and other finished products, while shaving dust is being compacted into large pellets for use in waste-to-energy facilities.
