The Conceria Volpiana Joint-Stock Company is characterized as a whole cycle tannery, from raw skins up to finished leathers.
We are introducing to you the processing that Conceria Volpiana Joint-Stock Company is able to make into its building.

Fuller drum
The skins drumming happens for articles requiring a soft touching.
The softness of the skin can be softer or less soft depending on the treated article.
Fluffing
The fluffing usually happens as the last step of the skin working.
It gives to the skin a suede effect.
Palissonatura
Il palissone effettua una vigorosa azione meccanica sulla pelle
allargando le fibre in modo tale da eliminare la rigidità acquisita durante
le fasi di asciugatura.
Con questa operazione quindi aumenta in modo
evidente la superficie della pelle.

One is for cow whole hides where the drying happens in a natural way and one is for skins of smaller sizes (splits/butts/shoulders) where the drying happens if skins pass into a specific warming tunnel.
