WE ARE OSMO

WET END

We are committed to providing constant support to our customers at every stage of the process. We maintain direct contact with those responsible for processing and conduct periodic visits to the tannery to analyze every aspect together.

Starting from raw hides, we begin the tanning process with the aim of transforming them into a hygienic and durable product. We design solutions for chrome and chrome-free tanning, aldehyde white base, metal-free COSMOWHITE®, and enzyme-based tanning.

Once tanning is complete, we obtain a material ready for retanning, from which a semi-finished product is derived.

FINISHING PHASE

Through our partnership with HTF, we specialize in the production of technical chemicals and dyes for the tanning sector and guarantee complete coverage from the beginning to the end of the process: from tanning to product finishing.

Once the retanning phase is complete, the process passes into the hands of our partner HTF, which handles the final stage of leather processing, giving it the desired appearance and characteristics. Through attention to detail, the leather is ensured an impeccable look and long-lasting durability.

For all finishing stages, visit HTF®, a leader in finishing products and technologies.

The market for low-environmental-impact products is one of Osmo’s primary missions.

In an industrial sector with origins dating back centuries, growing ecological sensitivity is redefining leather processing paradigms, and we want to be protagonists of this change. From this ecological sensitivity, the patented COSMOWHITE® process (metal-free, over 90% biodegradable leathers) and the ZenZero® line were born.

THE POWER OF RESEARCH: OUR LABORATORY

ANALYSIS

The analysis laboratory, equipped with innovative instrumentation, performs a wide range of tests, including those for lightfastness, heat resistance, tear strength, abrasion resistance, water repellency, and many others. We offer a true outsourced R&D service for tanneries that goes beyond simple traditional assistance, representing a strategic resource for development and research.

TANNING

We have a fully automated laboratory for tanning, retanning, and dyeing, unique in the leather chemicals sector, equipped with ten drums operating 24 hours a day. Our technicians can constantly monitor all process variables, particularly times and temperatures, relying on high standards in terms of precision and application repeatability.
