How biotechnologies are changing the tanning industry

The tanning industry is making huge strides in the use of biotechnology to develop innovative and sustainable solutions. Biotechnologies offer numerous opportunities to improve the quality of tanning products, reduce the environmental impact of the industry and satisfy the growing consumer demand for eco-friendly products.


One of the main applications of biotechnology in the tanning industry is the use of enzymes to replace the chemicals traditionally used in the tanning process. These enzymes can increase production efficiency and improve the quality of the final product. Furthermore, these substances are less harmful to the environment and human health than those used up to now.


Furthermore, biotechnologies are used to develop solutions for waste management in the tanning industry. For example, bacteria can be used to decompose organic waste produced during the tanning process, reducing any risks to the environment.


Biodermol is a leading company in the use of biotechnology in the tanning industry. Our products have been developed in the laboratory to help companies face the new challenges of the ecological transition.
