| Starting
from the eggs at the incubation room of the associated farms, ECOCAIMAN
controls the small caiman yougsters, feeding juvenils to reach the required
width and then classify the animals for slaughtering, salt the skins and
transport them to the tannery. Great care is taken to ensure that only the
highest quality skins are selected to the required standards, measured and
graded. They are kept in a cooler at low temperatures until they enter into
production. The skins are then soaked with the necessary chemicals, in a
series of technical programmed procedures, until they are soft enough and
tested for dying. After dying and oiled, the skins are dried and applied
seasoning chemicals to ensure that the skins will shine. The skins will
now be glazed into desired glossy look, well polished, graded, measured
again & tagged to arrange Packing List for export, satisfying 100% our
clientís requirements. Besides, ECOCAIMAN has also developed the
most important and functional water softening facility in the tanning industry
of the country, re-using water and chemicals several times to throw back
clean-treated water to the sewerage system of Bogota. ALL
EXPORTED SKINS ARE CRUSTED & FINISHED ACCORDING TO VERY STRICT REQUIREMENTS
BY EXPERIENCED TANNERS. QUALITY
CONTROL IS A PRIORITY IN EVERY STEP. |
