The Batna Unit of the Algerian Company for Leather and Derivatives, which is located in the industrial zone of the state capital, received, as of Thursday noon, more than 30,000 pieces of sacrificial skins from several Batna municipalities and eastern states.
The source confirmed to WAG that the quantity that has been collected so far from some municipalities of the state, such as Batna, Tigraar, Irabaa and Tilato, as well as neighboring states such as Constantine, Khenchela, Tebessa, Setif, Skikda and Bordj Bou Arreridj, is close to the quantity that the unit received on the same occasion last year, which amounted to 31 thousand pieces of sacrificial skins
It is expected, according to the same official, that the yield of the skins of Eid al-Adha for the year 2023 will be very significant, both in terms of the quantity that the unit will receive until the end of the collection process, which is still ongoing locally and at the level of several eastern states, or in terms of those that will be exploited in production, which reached in the year past 2,100 pieces.
The province of Batna, along with the source, is considered one of the model provinces in collecting the skins of Eid sacrifices, in addition to the provinces of Algiers, Djelfa, Oran, Ain Temouchent and Jijel, especially since they have tanneries.
All material and human capabilities were harnessed for the success of the operation at the level of the institution, which harnessed this year 5 trucks with a shipping capacity ranging between 2.5 tons and 7 tons to collect the skins at the level of the city of Batna to ensure that they are transported directly to the unit in order to preserve them from damage and also on the environment and the surroundings and to avoid the spread of Bad smells.
The director of the unit affiliated to the holding company Gitex indicated that the state of Batna has 3 other branches in which the skins of Eid al-Adha sacrifices are collected, represented in the shoe production unit in Benqaos and the tanneries of Barika and Ain Jasser.
He added that the process of sorting the pieces suitable for exploitation is carried out on the spot in the unit by specialized technicians, and is transferred directly to the production chain whenever a shipment of leather is received, whether from the municipalities of Batna or the rest of the neighboring states, and the process that is proceeding so far in good conditions was preceded by the recruitment of all workers of the unit, he added. The source is a large-scale campaign to engage in an effort to value this wealth by following some conditions, including taking care of the safety of the skin when skinning it and avoiding washing it with water while putting salt on the soft area of the skin and leaving it in the place designated for it.
