What Is PU Leather?

Polyurethane leather is a faux piece of leather that is used to make pieces of furniture and accessories. 100% polyurethane leather is vegan. PU leather fabric is constructed by applying a polyurethane finish to another material. The most common base materials include cotton, rayon, polyester, and nylon. An artificial grain pattern is applied to the surface to offer the look of authentic genuine leather.

What is Polyurethane?

Most people use polyurethanes every day. It is a plastic material that exists in many forms and can be made into a flexible or rigid material. Polyurethanes are safe and used in many everyday products.

Advantages of Artificial Leather

Most people choose artificial leather because it’s more affordable with a similar look of genuine leather. Other advantages of faux leather include:

  • PU leather is easier to manufacture than different types of leather for a more affordable price.
  • Faux leather is easy to clean because it doesn’t absorb liquids.
  • 100% PU leather is vegan.
  • Faux leather is offered in multiple types of colors and styles.
  • PU leather won’t dry out.
  • PU leather is a kid and pet-friendly kind of leather for its durability.

Disadvantages of Artificial Leather

Polyurethane fabric is considered the lowest level of leather. Its disadvantages include:

  • Artificial leather can look and feel fake.
  • PU leather doesn’t offer a breathable exterior.
  • You may notice cracks and wear over time.
  • PU leather sometimes smells like plastic.
  • PU leather cannot develop a patina over time.

Faux Leather Care Tips

Faux leather stains can ruin its look, so it’s essential to care for your faux leather furniture properly. The best way to clean stains on your PU leather furniture is to dip a foam cleaner into warm water and gently rub it on the stain. Only use baby shampoo or unscented liquid soap to clean tough grime. You can use baby oil to moisturize your faux leather furniture to ensure it doesn’t get dry. Protecting your PU leather by keeping it out of direct sunlight and helping it stay as moisturized as possible is essential.

Real Leather vs. Faux Leather

Genuine Leather is made from animal hides. It is the highest quality of leather on the market because it includes all-natural imperfections of the animal hide for a unique look. Real leather is thick and durable to stand the test of time. It patinas over time, offering a classic and timeless look. Faux leather is produced artificially without the use of real animal hides. It is made to look and feel as close to genuine leather as possible, but it does not have the same properties. Real leather is more expensive due to its natural composition.

How to Tell if Furniture Is Made of PU Leather

Our Mobler Furniture team will tell you if our products are made of faux or genuine leather. The easiest way for you to know if a piece of furniture or item is made of PU leather is the price tag due to the production quality. You may also notice PU leather has a distinct smell of plastic instead of a natural leather smell. Genuine leather absorbs liquids, while PU leather will not absorb a spill. You can also tell if the furniture is faux leather by checking to see if it has any imperfections in the material. It often has a patterned texture.

Appearance of PU Leather Furniture

Faux leather furniture is made to look and feel like genuine leather. While it comes very close, you will notice a few differences. Faux leather furniture is one of the most popular forms of furniture for its durability and versatility. It’s made when a roller applies an artificial grain pattern to its surface for the look of a real animal hide. The grain pattern is even in appearance and applies a uniform pattern. It can be dyed and made with any design for a specific look. PU faux leather has a much more realistic look than vinyl leather and may wrinkle like genuine leather when gathered. Many people won’t notice the difference between a real and a faux leather piece of furniture.
