Prime Asia produces weekly whole hide drop splits in our facilities in China and Vietnam.
All the productions are split in blue from full substance wet-blue with 90%+ being from USA Steers and Heifers.
The splits are separated by weight after splitting and then packed as untrimmed, whole hide drop-splits, tannery run, but with any splits damaged in the splitting process removed and packed separately as Rejects.
Prime Asia's drop split weight ranges are:
4.0/7.0 kilos, approximate average shipping weight 5.75/6.75 kilos
7.0/10.5 kilos, approximate average shipping weight 8.75/9.75 kilos
10.5/14.0 kilos, approximate average shipping weight 11.75/12.75 kilos
14.0/up kilos, approximate average shipping weight 15.25/16.75 kilos
Any splits under 4 kilos and any splits damaged during the splitting process are packed together as one item and sold separately.
From time to time, there may be a production of middle splits, belly splits and shoulder splits. These are also kept separate and marketed accordingly.
