How To Distinguish Between Microfiber Leather And Other Synthetic Leather

The highly polluting leather and traditional synthetic leather processing industry is gradually exiting as a backward production capacity. The ultra fiber leather industry, which has the triple advantages of environmental protection, performance, and price, still maintains a double-digit annual growth rate against the backdrop of the overall downturn in the domestic leather industry. At present, microfiber leather is widely used in footwear, furniture, sofas, luggage, vehicle and ship interiors, clothing fabrics, handbags, decorative fabrics, and military supplies. Due to the large market for microfiber leather, many manufacturers have begun to produce microfiber leather. However, many manufacturers use other artificial leather to fake microfiber leather, or substitute high-quality microfiber leather for high-quality microfiber leather. Below is how to identify microfiber leather.

1. The back or cut surface of microfiber leather has fine fibers closely resembling genuine leather, while other artificial skins do not have or are just fabric like fabrics. "If the back or cut surface is not visible, it is indeed difficult to distinguish because both leathers have film overlays on their surfaces, but they are relatively easy to distinguish from poorer leathers, which are softer and thinner.".

2. Looking at the reverse side of leather, microfiber leather generally has chemical fiber fabrics or textures, while genuine leather only has holes;

3. Super fiber leather is very scratch resistant and won't leave any marks when scratched with metal or nails

4. Judging by the price, the price of microfiber leather is higher than that of PU and cheaper than that of genuine leather, with a significant difference.

5. If allowed to burn, it is the most direct to burn. The taste of microfiber leather is similar to that of nylon, without the smell of peeling;

6. Look at the gloss, the leather has a soft gloss, and the microfiber leather has a brighter gloss

7. Each piece of microfiber leather has the same texture, and is solid when viewed from the side, all made of fiber synthesis, without foaming.
