What is PU Leather?
PU leather, also known as polyurethane leather or faux leather, is a synthetic material that is designed to imitate the look and feel of genuine leather. It is made by coating a fabric base, such as polyester or cotton, with a layer of polyurethane.
Polyurethane is a type of polymer that can be produced in various forms, including a liquid that can be sprayed or coated onto the fabric. Once applied, it is treated to give it the appearance and texture of leather. The resulting material is more affordable than genuine leather and offers several advantages.
