Cattle horn consists of keratin, a highly durable and lightweight material. Horn slabs vary in thickness, color, and pattern, making them ideal for crafting, décor, and manufacturing. Horn is naturally sustainable, as it is collected from ethically sourced livestock. Unlike synthetic alternatives, buffalo horn ages gracefully and maintains strength over decades. Knowledge of scale density, moisture content, and processing methods ensures the final product meets B2B requirements globally.
Sambhal has been a hub for horn craftsmanship for centuries. Skilled artisans cut, polish, and shape slabs and scales using hand tools and precision machinery. Techniques include tapering, sanding, and finishing, which enhance durability and aesthetic appeal. Each slab is inspected for uniformity, color, and defects, ensuring premium quality for export.
HornImpex practices zero-waste processing, using every part of the horn. Our sourcing is completely ethical, adhering to livestock welfare standards. By recycling horn by-products, we reduce environmental impact and provide eco-friendly raw material for manufacturers. Sustainability metrics include X tons of horn processed annually with <1% wastage.
