SOLVOTAN XS gives a silky handle as well as writing effects without showing superficial over fatliquoring.

SOLVOTAN XS is used in the production of suede leathers showing even and intensive dyeings.

Recommendations for use

The leather is fatliquored before tanning with 1-2 %  SOLVOTAN XS dissolved in 3 times its weight of water at 50ºC. This results in clean tannings, good grain lubrication with a better chrome distribution.
