| Résumé : |
Hides &nd skins represent up to 15% of the value of the carcasses and as such consitute one of the most valuable 'cuts' off the animal, comparable with rump steak. It is therefore somewhat surprising that skins are perceived as a by-product of the meat industry.
It is important to firmly establish that skins and hides are seen as a co-product of the meat industry.
In order that the UK and European leather industry can compete favourably in the world market place, it has risen to meet the demands of the quality end of the market place, it has risen to meet the demands of the quality end of the market. As such this requires a very high standard of quality in the raw material. The ability to meet these demands is being compromised by a belief that skins are not economically important and this results in pre- and post-mortem damage. Downgrading of skins and hides as a result of this damage is costing the UK tradt £50 million alone, and Europe £600 million. |
