• In pre tanning, tanning, and retanning steps. It improves finished leather properties when used in combination with other tanning materials such as Basic chromium sulphate, aluminium sulphate, vegetable extracts (such as mimosa), phenolic syntans, and others.
• It is an excellent choice for pretanning and retanning of conventional chrome systems.
• This chemistry is increasingly being used in the growing free of chrome market.
• The only limitation is light-colored leathers where Balsyn G 50 may not provide the required light fastness.
