The Advantage of PU
Polyurethane Compared to PVC
• Less harmful to the environment. Contains no PVC, DOP, DOA and DDP which creates dioxin upon burning
• Contains no banned substances such as lead, Azo dyes, formaldehyde, heavy metals, latex, or plasticizer
• Easier breakdown after disposal
• Waterproof, yet breathable
• Will not get stiff or brittle in cold
• Does not get soft and tacky in heat
• Excellent hydrolysis resistance
• Superior abrasion resistance and tear strength
Polyurethane Compared to Natural Leather
• Animal-friendly and guilt-free. No animals killed or mistreated
• Natural leather requires toxic, heavy metals when tanning and tumbling
• Waste water from leather dye houses is highly toxic and contributes to water pollution
