Ostrich Skin Transport
 
  1. If transporting the skins by pallet, cover with cardboard, cloth (such as old sheets) or hessien sacking. Do not use any form of plastic. Skins need to breathe and plastic causes the skins to heat. Heat causes bacterial activity which will damage your skins.

  2. Use refrigerated transport.

  3. The sooner the skins are transported to the tannery the less opportunity there is for any problems to arise.
