In the leather production process, tanning is the second step after the preparation of the hide and is followed by the crusting process. The conversion of raw hides or skins into leather is known as tanning. Hides and skins possess the ability to absorb tannic acid and other chemical substances that prevent them from decaying, besides making them resistant to wetting and keeping them durable and supple. The surface of hides and skins contains hair and oil glands and is known as the grain side. The flesh side of the skin or the hide is much thicker and softer compared with the grain side.
