What 15 includes

• This division includes dressing and dyeing of fur and the transformation of hides or skins into leather by tanning or curing and fabricating the leather into products for final consumption. This division also includes the manufacture of direct substitute products (like-products) made from materials other than leather such as rubber footwear, textile luggage. Products made from leather substitutes are included here, because they are made in ways similar to those in which leather products are made (e.g. luggage) and are often produced in the same unit.
