Routinely we might be sending the hides overseas or someplace else, so to be ready to process the hides here we are value-adding our product, he revealed.
Not only is it a sound investment for the group nation-wide, but it is superb for Ipswich to have this up to the minute facility. Built in 8 months, the modern-looking building reuses the salt and water used on site and uses bio-filters to guarantee no bad smells get outside of the facility.
