Stahl Europe runs finishing and wet end course at Lederinstitut Reutlingen
Ilona Coremans and Wolfgang Schmälzle from Stahl Europe recently ran two intensive, two-week courses for Leather Finishing and Wet-End Processing at the Lederinstitut Geberschule Reutlingen, Germany.
Attended by 32 students from the Institute, the courses were designed to impart product, process knowledge and application experience. In support of the practical work, each student was provided with technical data sheets explaining product descriptions, specifications and application methods for the range of products being used on the courses. They were also provided with leather samples specific to their individual projects and a leather pattern to which they were expected to match, prepare and apply their own combination of products in making up a suitable wet end or leather finish formula and process.
