 | Slinkskins Ltd collect these casualties of nature from farms around New Zealand. They are tanned and finished to a high standard at our factory in Southland for manufacturers who produce soft, lightweight garments and gloves which then sell to fashion houses throughout the world. |
 | Introduced to New Zealand from Australia in the late 1850's, the possum numbers have increased to a point where this fabulous furskin has become a pest and is destroying the native forests of New Zealand. For this reason the hunting of opossum is encouraged and our Tannery has used it's expertise to produce a wide range of natural and dyed skins thus making use of this otherwise wasted resource. |
 | Another casualty of nature which when tanned and finished provides beautiful hair-on calfskins suitable for slippers, boots, rugs, cushions and other fashion accessories. |
