Cold Milling: the cutting-edge solution launched by Erretre, the leather sector requires materials featuring the highest quality standards, soft and fine-grained hides. Especially in the case of vegetable-tanned leathers: being extremely sensitive to heat, they need specific technologies in order to be adequately processed without being damaged during the transformation cycle as well as to ensure first-rate final results. This is the mission pursued by Erretre, company established in the ‘70s and involved in the research and development of new finishing solutions for the tanning sector. An example of this commitment is Chemical Milling, a technology specifically designed to modify the hide’s features during the milling phase. The firm headquartered in Arzignano has chosen as its core business the production of technologies conceived to monitor air humidity and optimal temperatures. At the latest edition of Simac Tanning Tech, Erretre launched a further breakthrough, that is, Cold Milling®, a brand-new solution developed to strengthen the temperature and humidity control throughout the processing cycle so as to not spoil the most delicate materials. In this way, hides boast, among other things, the highest quality standards and the finest grain. These innovations and many other technical improvements are made thanks to the experience gained over the years, with the constant support provided to customers throughout the lifetime of the machine. www.erretre.com
