Welle is one of the most sought-after hide types in our product line — known for its freshness, moisture content, and excellent suitability for leather tanning. At GM David Kenya LTD, we supply high-quality Welle hides preserved under strict hygiene and grading standards, serving both local tanneries and regional exporters.
What Are Welle Hides?
“Welle” refers to raw animal hides (primarily cowhide) that are preserved through wet salting. Unlike sun-dried hides, Welle retains its natural moisture and structure, making it ideal for further processing in tanneries.
These hides are typically:
- Freshly flayed and trimmed
- Salted within hours of collection
- Folded and stacked in cool, dry conditions
- Packed for short- to medium-term storage or transport
Our hides are salted immediately after flaying to prevent decay and preserve fiber integrity.
We sort Welle hides based on size, weight, and skin condition to match tannery specifications.
All hides are processed under clean conditions with attention to reducing contamination.
We maintain steady sourcing relationships with abattoirs across Kenya, ensuring regular availability in large volumes.
Proper documentation and logistics support make our Welle ideal for both domestic tanneries and regional traders.
Our Welle hides come from healthy livestock processed under humane, regulated conditions. We work closely with local suppliers to ensure ethical practices and traceability in every batch.
