Microfiber Pleather and PU Faux Leather are high-performance synthetic upholstery materials designed to mimic the look and feel of genuine leather. They consist of a flexible polymer coating (Polyurethane, PU, is superior to PVC) applied over a durable, soft base fabric (typically microfiber or a dense knit). The "microfiber pleather" specifically utilizes a microfiber base, which enhances the material's breathability, softness, and tear strength compared to traditional vinyl (PVC) bases, making it ideal for contract-grade seating.

Common Buyer Inquiries

  • Q: Which is more durable: PU or PVC faux leather?

  • A: PU (Polyurethane) is generally considered superior to PVC. It is more breathable, more flexible, and better resistant to peeling and cracking over time.

  • Q: How do I prevent the faux leather from cracking?

  • A: Use the softest, most pliable PU formula. Avoid placing it near direct heat sources and use mild, non-abrasive cleaners only.

  • Q: Does this material meet FR standards?

  • A: Yes, the polymer coating can be formulated with FR additives to meet major standards like CAL 117-2013 and specific contract codes.

Guide to Material Specification

Faux leather specification is about coating quality and base stability:

  • Coating Type: Specify PU over PVC for higher quality, better breathability, and less likelihood of cracking.

  • Base Fabric: Microfiber or dense woven base is superior to non-woven materials, offering greater tear strength.

  • Thickness: Typically measured in millimeters (e.g., 0.8mm to 1.2mm); thicker is generally more durable and luxurious.
