Global Leather Chemicals Market

The latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Leather Chemicals Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2022-2027,” finds that the global leather chemicals market size reached US$ 8.1 Billion in 2021. Leather chemicals are specially formulated chemicals that help process raw animal hides and skins into finished leather products. They are widely utilized for tanning, dyeing, and finishing during different stages of the leather-making process. Some commonly used leather chemicals include resins, dyes, surfactants, degreasers, vegetable tannin, formic acid, aldehydes, mineral salts, and biocides. They assist in imparting specific properties, such as color, texture, softness, adhesiveness, fullness, roundness, lightfastness, and toughness, to the leather. They also help improve the mold and water resistance properties, prevent the growth of microorganisms that can damage the leather, and remove hair, natural fats, and greases from the hides or skins. As a result, leather chemicals find extensive applications in manufacturing various leather products, including textile, footwear, apparel, and home furnishing.
