Comparison between artificial leather and genuine leather

Comparison between artificial leather and genuine leather

In a long period of time, there has been a dispute between "genuine leather" and "artificial leather". People always think that the high-end of genuine leather and artificial leather, so it often appears that "artificial leather" is pretended to be "genuine leather products". However, with the improvement of understanding, people have found that in many aspects, the quality of artificial leather has far exceeded that of genuine leather, so it is unnecessary to use artificial leather as genuine leather.

In the search, I entered "is artificial leather good?" on the Internet, most people said that artificial leather is not as good as real leather, and a few people thought that artificial leather was better. Before I came into contact with the leather industry, I always thought that the quality and texture of real leather were better. As I slowly understood leather, my idea changed.

The performance of artificial leather and genuine leather are different. In terms of wear resistance, folding resistance and scratch resistance, the performance of PVC leather is higher than that of genuine leather. In terms of texture, PVC artificial leather is far inferior to that of genuine leather. The texture of PU leather is also inferior to that of genuine leather. In terms of wear resistance, folding resistance and scratch resistance, the performance of genuine leather is also higher than that of PU leather;

As far as environmental protection is concerned, there will be different degrees of pollution in the production of leather and artificial leather. We will not discuss it here. Let's talk about the impact of leather and artificial leather on human body.

PU leather is composed of polyurethane, but plasticizer will be added in production to improve performance. Generally, PU leather is more environmentally friendly than PVC leather;

But this is not true. With the progress of modern science and technology, people's pursuit of quality of life is constantly improving. Now some high-end artificial leather has the same texture as genuine leather, and its performance is similar to that of genuine leather. For example, our company recently developed a pure Pu artificial leather, which does not add any plasticizer in the production and has no VOC release. It is very environmentally friendly, Wear resistance can reach 50000 revolutions. It will not fade and peel in ten years. The texture is the same as that of genuine leather.
