POLYURETHANE COATED STRETCH
This category includes synthetic stretch leathers. These are ideal to produce bags and especially boots because they have a particular elastic property that allows you to wrap the foot appropriately.There are several types and they come in different thicknesses. Many of these also come with a Stock service.
MIXED PU / PVC COATED
Under this category you can find faux leather which use not only polyurethane but also PVC in the coating phase. PVC is a cheap product, very similar to plastic, which is known to have 2 advantages. Firstly, it is great value for money; secondly, it has a better resistance to hydrolysis. Nevertheless, it is not so soft or tender. Items are mainly available to produce bags and sofas.

We could not leave out linings in our proposals.
There are many imitations of pork and veal linings, as well as glossy or opaque kid.
Generally, thicknesses range from 0.65 to 0.80 with both soft and pointed hands.
China is currently the country where most of the PU and PU/PVC linings traded in the world come from. This is because they have an excellent value for money. Buying PU and PU/PVC linings from China is typically subject to minimum quantities and never comes with a stock service.

In the faux leather category, we also negotiate microfibers produced in China.
Typically, manufacturers of this product are located in northern China.
The feature of microfibers (usually consists of 50% polyurethane and 50% PA (Nylon) ) is a structure that is very similar to the leather fiber. Microfibers are used especially for shoe components, linings, reinforcements, and uppers.
Thanks to its composition, it is endowed with a remarkable resistance to tearing.
They come in different thicknesses, from mm. 0.6 (anti-slip) up to mm. 2.00. The latter are ideal for footwear walking and safety uppers.
