Vinyl furniture is composed of two distinct synthetic materials. The upholstery's fibers are made of strong polyester fibers. The fibers are then coated with vinyl, which is composed of PVC and plasticizers (phthalic acid). This vinyl is melted onto the fibers' surfaces, sealing them shut and creating a virtually waterproof surface that is still flexible and tough.
Product Description
Vinyl furniture is made from two separate synthetic materials. The fibers of the upholstery are constructed from strong polyester fibers. The fibers are then coated with vinyl, made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and plasticizers (phthalic acid). This vinyl is melted onto the surface of the fibers, sealing them closed and making a virtually waterproof surface that is still flexible and tough.
Product Advantage
It’s increasingly realistic: Advances in the way that synthetic leathers are produced mean that modern faux leather is increasingly realistic. Many manufacturers can now create faux leathers with convincing variations in grain, colour and texture that look and feel almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
It offers a huge choice of colours: Synthetic leathers hold dye better than real versions, which means that you can buy faux leather in a wider variety of colours and styles. This means it’s a great choice if you have something very specific in mind for your interiors.
It’s incredibly durable: Unlike some low-quality genuine leathers, it does not crack, fade, or scratch easily. It’s resistance to scratches makes it a good choice of upholstery for pet owners.
It’s low maintenance: Faux leather is easy to clean and care for, and you don’t need to use a specialist leather cleaner to keep it in good condition. For this reason, you’ll often find faux leather in public areas or medical environments.
Selection Tips
Look for good texture. When choosing a quality faux leather item, the first feature you should look for is texture. Genuine leather has a grainy texture, and so do high-quality fakes. Whether you are going for a realistic or more outlandish look, avoid an overly smooth surface. This can be indicative of lower quality.
Choose your colors. When it comes to faux leather items, the sky is the limit regarding color. Bright colors, funky patterns, imitation animal skin looks, and natural blacks and browns are all available in faux items.
Compare the level of “sheen.” Faux leather items will range from very shiny to very matte, and everywhere in between. To choose a real-looking faux item, select something with a little less sheen. True leather is not shiny, but matte. Alternatively, go for a trendy look by choosing high-gloss patent leather.
