Discover Si-TPV, A Silicone Vegan Leather Material, Contribute A Soft as Skin Touch, Eco-friendly and Durable Innovation in Premium Furniture Applications

In the high-end furniture upholstery industry, material choice directly impacts a product's overall feel and user experience. While traditional genuine leather offers natural tactile benefits, its environmental impact during production and high resource consumption limit its appeal in modern home design. In contrast, Si-TPV, a skin friendly materials – with its soft as skin texture, eco-friendly, flexible design option – is becoming the go-to durable synthetic leather choice for premium furniture applications.

What Are the Challenges of Traditional Genuine Leather?

While traditional genuine leather offers a luxurious feel for high-end sofas, it has several technical drawbacks. These limitations are especially noticeable in durability, eco-friendliness, and so on. Such as:

Uneven strength: The consistently rub in one spot, or habitually push off from the same area when standing, those high-stress points will eventually wear out along the leather’s natural weak grain direction. The internal fibers become stretched and damaged, making repairs nearly impossible to conceal.

Sweat damage and permanent deformation: Body heat and prolonged sweat exposure cause leather in contact areas to become discolored and grimy, creating stubborn sweat stains. Combined with extended heat/humidity and pressure—especially noticeable on light-colored leather sofas—this causes permanent dents and wrinkles that remain visible after standing up, and it will never springing back to shape after long-term force pressing.

Surface wear vulnerability: Premium leather (especially aniline leather valued for its natural texture) features delicate surface treatments. These conditions easily cause scratches or scuffs on the material.

UV degradation: Sunlight's ultraviolet rays are leather's primary enemy, as prolonged exposure will cause affected areas to soften and stretch, with noticeable fading, bleaching, or yellowing of the color.

Si-TPV Solution: Durable with Soft as Skin Touch, Eco-friendly and Uv-Resistant in Artifical Leather and Fabric Applications.

Ultra-soft Si-TPV fabric is an eco-friendly material made using dynamic vulcanization technology. This innovative silicone vegan leather demonstrates significant potential in high-end furniture upholstery due to its exceptional wearable resistance and unique Soft As Skin touch. As a new Artificial Leather Fabric, it not only matches traditional leather's softness and elasticity but achieves great improvements in sustainability, durability, and Flexibility.

Skin-soft texture: The raised silicone rubber particles on the surface provide a long-lasting and soft skin-friendly touch, and can be long-lasting and smooth without the need for additional surface treatment.

Wear Resistance: The vulcanized silicone rubber particles are evenly dispersed on the surface of TPU and form a super wear-resistant cross-linked structure, which is super durable for long-term pressing with outstanding Uv-Resistant performance.

Anti-bacterial & Stain-resistant: Large water contact angle and low surface energy,making it resistant to adhering to bacteria and stains, and can be easily cleaned with alcohol.

Eco-friendly and Efficiency: Simplified manufacturing generates lower carbon emissions and reduced environmental impact compared to animal leather production. It can significant cost savings while minimizing ecological burden.
