Global Man-made Leather Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Man-made leather, also known as synthetic leather or faux leather, is a durable and cost-effective material designed to mimic the appearance and texture of genuine leather but without using animal products. It is typically made from a combination of synthetic polymers, such as polyurethane (PU) or polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which are applied to a fabric backing to create a flexible, leather-like surface. Man-made leather is used in a wide range of applications, including fashion items like jackets, handbags, and shoes, as well as furniture, automotive upholstery, and accessories. While it may not possess the exact same characteristics as natural leather, such as breathability or unique aging properties, man-made leather is highly versatile, easy to clean, and available in a variety of colors and textures. It is considered more environmentally friendly and ethically appealing compared to animal-derived leather, and its production generally involves less environmental impact, especially when using water-based or biodegradable options.
