Choose upholstery leather for demanding daily use by checking its material type, abrasion and scratch resistance, waterproofing, stain resistance, easy-clean performance, surface consistency, and suitability for the intended furniture. Solvent-free PU leather with a 0.7–1.3 mm thickness range, customized backing, and documented quality inspections provides a practical basis for durable sofa and furniture upholstery.
Durability depends on the interaction between the leather structure, surface treatment, backing fabric, and intended use. For furniture upholstery, a material should retain a consistent surface appearance while tolerating repeated contact, scratching, spills, and routine cleaning. The solvent-free PU product combines a soft hand feel and natural leather texture with abrasion resistance, scratch resistance, stain resistance, waterproofing, and easy-clean performance.
Thickness and width should be confirmed against the furniture construction and covering process. This product has a stated thickness of 0.7–1.3 mm and a width of 54/55 inches. The manufacturer supports adjustments to thickness and backing fabric, allowing the specification to be aligned with the upholstery design and production method.
Quality verification covers raw material inspection, color matching confirmation, production process inspection, laboratory testing, finished product inspection, and pre-shipment inspection. Depending on customer requirements, checks include thickness, width, color consistency, surface appearance, abrasion resistance, tensile strength, peeling strength, scratch resistance, and flame-retardant performance.
