ABSTRACT:
A method for preparing unhaired hides ready for tanning from hides and skins using proteolytic and lipolytic enzymes in the beamhouse, whereby in at least one of the partial steps of the beamhouse consisting of a) liming in the pH range 11.5-14 and b) bating in the pH range 5-11.5, alkaline lipases (E.C.3.1.3.) having an activity optimum in the pH range 9-11 are added to the aqueous floats corresponding to these partial steps.
