Faux Leather is a material designed to mimic the appearance and texture of natural leather, widely used in various applications such as clothing, footwear, handbags, furniture, and automotive interiors.

Additionally, because it does not require animal sources, it is often favored for its animal welfare and environmental benefits.

However, with advancements in material science, many new types of synthetic leather are continually improving, becoming increasingly comparable to natural leather. The applications of Faux Leather are also expanding, particularly in the fashion industry, where designers explore its innovative potential to meet the demand for sustainable practices.

Particularly among younger generations, there is a growing preference for fashion choices that do not involve animal products, further propelling the popularity of synthetic leather.

Currently, the applications of Faux Leather are extensive, encompassing not just clothing and accessories but also furniture, automotive interiors, and sporting goods. For instance, many automotive manufacturers have begun using synthetic leather in their vehicle interiors to minimize environmental impact. Likewise, the furniture industry is gradually shifting towards Faux Leather, appreciated for its durability and ease of maintenance, making it a popular choice in modern home design.
