Pickled Deer Skins
![]() |
New Zealand deer skins are desired by world leading designers for application to the manufacture of handbags, garments and shoes, offering a deep spongy feel and a luxurious pebble grain that can be accentuated or minimized during the tanning process. Upon receipt at our plant, deer skins are trimmed then fleshed to create a clean and uniform starting point for the preservation process that ensues. The skins are processed in vessels through to a pickle stage before being graded for quality and substance and packed into export standard wooden pallets for distribution to customers or prepared for further processing. |
