    Leather dyeing usually involves the use of spirit or alcohol based dyes where alcohol quickly gets absorbed into moistened leather. Leather dyeing formulations are similar to lacquers. They consist of a dye or pigment, a casein or nitrocellulose resin, and a solvent.? The types of dyestuff that are used by tanneries generally varies depending on the product range needed along with the dictates of the fashion world. It is a fact that each tannery uses between 50-100 or more different types of dyestuffs. The leather industry primarily uses anionic dyestuffs, that can be divided in the following families: ?Acid dyes ?Mordant dyes ?Direct dyes ?Basic Dyes, its use is also limited. ?Pre-metalled dyes ?Solubilised sulphur dyes ?Reactive dyes although a part of the anionic group of dyes but use limited to a certain extent.
