Advantages
Facilitates good opening up of
the fibre structure; optimum fat
dispersion; better scud
loosening; reduced swelling of
the pelt; re- moves grease from
hair follicle making way for
protease to attack the hair root.
Moreover Hostalime has shown
some excellent results in keratin
removal in buffalo and buff calf.

Application
Hostalime can be used for
enzyme assisted liming/unhairing
of any kind of hide and skin. The
dosage may vary, depending on
the type of raw material and the
level of fat, from 0.5 to 1.5%.
