| Depending on the natural structure of the fish-skin, once transformed to leather, the product is aesthetically elegant. The natural elegance is further accentuated in fish-hides which have medium to small scales. The finished fish leather product when combined with knowledgeable craftsmen has significant artistic potential. Presently, this potential leather source is under-utilized in Mexico, due to an inadequate supply chain, in part due the complex manufacturing process required to transform fish-skin into leather, requiring a high-level of tannery aptitude, as well as, familiarity with the organic compositions of fish-skin. In this paper, we will discuss the current market and future potential opportunities for leather fish-skin products in Mexico. In addition, we will describe the standard tanning process for fish-skins, while citing examples of value added product. | |
