Eco-Friendly Tanning
At Erdoğan Deri, we apply environmentally responsible tanning techniques that preserve the natural structure, shine, and softness of wool.
In our production processes, only chemicals that comply with international regulations and safety standards are used. No chemical that is not registered under REACH regulations is included in our manufacturing processes.
Through this responsible approach:
- The natural wool fibre structure remains intact.
- A safe surface suitable for skin contact is achieved.
- No harmful residues are released into the environment.
Chrome-Free Sheepskin Production
Our tanning lines do not use chromium or heavy-metal-based systems.
Thanks to our specialised chrome-free tanning techniques:
- The risk of heavy metal residues is eliminated.
- A safe material infrastructure is provided for baby products, medical applications, and sensitive skin-contact products.
- The natural elasticity of wool fibres is preserved.
These materials are particularly suitable for medical pads, orthopaedic support products, baby products, and other skin-contact collections.
Accredited Testing for Every Batch
Every batch of sheepskin produced in our facilities is analysed by independent and accredited testing institutions.
Key tests include:
- Heavy metal analysis
- Chemical residue controls
- pH value measurement
- Wool strength and tensile tests
- Colour fastness tests
Through these procedures, we provide our customers not only aesthetic quality but also documented safety and compliance.
Preserving the Natural Character of Wool
One of the most critical factors in sheepskin tanning is maintaining the vitality, density, and natural shine of the wool.
Through controlled and low-impact chemical systems:
- Wool deformation is minimised.
- The fibre structure is reinforced.
- Long-lasting and durable products are achieved.
This technical approach ensures high performance in both decorative and industrial applications.
Responsible Tanning for a Safer Future
For us, sheepskin is not merely a raw material — it is a natural resource that deserves responsible handling.
With our chrome-free processes, environmentally conscious production philosophy, and compliance with international standards, we adopt a sustainable model that protects both nature and human health.
