Improves grain quality, softness and fluffiness
If they weren't removed, the protein components that sit between the leather-making fibres would cement the fibres together. That would make the final leather harder. By removing these components, this product increases softness and fluffiness.
Reduction of wrinkles
This product softens and relaxes elastin and fibers. That smoothes out and reduces wrinkles.
Better dyeing properties
Wrinkles, marks and other variations can cause inconsistencies in dyeing. That will impact finished products. This product relaxes elastin and fibers to reduce these variations.
Good synergy with acid lipase
Our acid lipase Novocor ADL® is ideal for degreasing of small skins. Combining this product with Novocor ADL® leads to synergies that boost its benefits in acid bating.
Fully biodegradable
This product is both biodegradable and renewable. That means it has minimal environmental impact.
