TPU carrier materials in artificial leather application
Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) has gained prominence as a preferred material for artificial leather applications in the automotive and textile industries. Gessner, a leader in the filtration industry, presents its TPU carrier materials for artificial leather.
Renowned for its durability, flexibility, and resistance to oil, grease, and abrasion, TPU offers an alternative to natural leather. Additionally, TPUs with a high percentage of renewable materials are always available and ensure excellent performance. They are vegan and produced without the use of animal-derived raw materials. Moreover the recyleability of TPU is an eco-concious choice for manufacturers. A TPU nonwoven as a carrier material for TPU-based artificial leather, which improves recyclability and reuse, is an interesting innovation. The TPU nonwovens can be tailored to the individual nees of industrial partners.
