With the continuous upgrading of the global consumer market, PU leather is accelerating the replacement of traditional materials such as natural leather and PVC artificial leather due to its excellent performance and environmental protection characteristics. In the field of handbags, PU leather is favored by more and more consumers due to its advantages such as lightness, wear resistance, waterproofness and easy care. At present, PU synthetic leather accounts for about 42% of artificial leather, of which the handbag and luggage field accounts for 18% of its application.
The increase in consumer environmental awareness has prompted the PU leather industry to transform towards environmental protection. Water-based, solvent-free and other environmentally friendly PU leathers have become the mainstream of the market due to their low pollution and high performance. These environmentally friendly materials not only meet the support of national industrial policies, but also meet the needs of domestic and foreign brands for environmentally friendly materials.
