What Is Pu Leather? Is Pu Leather Artificial Leather?

Is PU leather artificial leather? PU leather is artificial leather, not real leather.
Artificial leather is also called imitation leather or rubber, which is a general term for artificial materials such as PVC and PU.
Artificial leather is made of foaming or laminating of PVC and PU with various formulas on a textile base or non-woven base. It can be processed according to different strength, wear resistance, cold resistance, color, gloss, pattern and other requirements.

It is also made into various grades with the change of technology, such as imported second-layer cowhide, which is currently a high-end leather due to its unique technology, stable quality and novel varieties. The price and grade are not inferior to the first layer of real leather.
