Synthetic leather has transformed industries by providing a sustainable, affordable, and adaptable alternative to traditional leather. As a leader in microfiber PU leather manufacturing, WINIW leverages advanced technology and eco-friendly practices to produce high-performance materials for global brands. Below, we break down the top 5 types of synthetic leather, their key features, and how WINIW’s expertise ensures premium solutions for diverse applications.

PVC Leather
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) leather, one of the earliest synthetic leathers, uses a plastic-coated fabric base for affordability and water resistance. While less breathable than PU alternatives, it suits low-flex applications like budget furniture, protective covers, and basic accessories. Its rigidity makes it durable for sofa upholstery or industrial mats but limits use in high-stress products. Though WINIW specializes in advanced PU leather, we recognize PVC’s role in cost-sensitive markets while advocating for greener alternatives.
Standard PU Leather
Polyurethane (PU) leather offers better flexibility, softness, and breathability than PVC. By coating fabric with polyurethane, it replicates genuine leather’s texture with improved tensile strength. Common uses include footwear, handbags, and mid-range furniture. However, traditional PU leather may wear faster than microfiber options. WINIW enhances standard PU leather with scratch-resistant finishes and UV stability, ideal for fashion accessories and automotive interiors requiring a balance of quality and affordability.
Microfiber PU Leather
A premium choice where WINIW excels, microfiber PU leather combines ultra-fine synthetic fibers with a non-woven backing to mimic natural leather’s softness and breathability. Its tear-resistant structure suits luxury goods, high-end automotive interiors, and durable furniture. Unlike standard PU, it excels in moisture management and eco-friendly production. WINIW’s microfiber PU leather features low VOC emissions, cruelty-free processes, and over 50 customizable textures and colors, making it a top pick for brands prioritizing sustainability and luxury.
Ecological PU Leather
Designed to minimize environmental impact, ecological PU leather uses water-based or solvent-free production, eliminating toxic chemicals like DMF. It aligns with global green standards and caters to vegan fashion, children’s products, and healthcare accessories. WINIW invests in solvent-free manufacturing and recyclable materials, ensuring compliance with eco-regulations while delivering high abrasion resistance for long-lasting performance.
Specialty Synthetic Leathers
Niche synthetic leathers meet industry-specific demands. Automotive PU leather incorporates heat resistance and perforated designs for car seats. Antibacterial variants use antimicrobial coatings for healthcare and gym gear. High-performance sports leather prioritizes lightweight, sweat-resistant properties for athletic equipment. WINIW offers tailored solutions, such as flame-resistant finishes for automotive clients or embossed textures for luxury furniture, showcasing our adaptability to diverse needs.
