"PU-based synthetic leather to witness the highest growth rate during forecast period"

PU-based synthetic leather is expected to witness the highest growth rate from 2016 to 2026. PU-based synthetic leather is made with the use of soft polymers, hence it does not require additional plasticizers. It offers many advantages such as, it is waterproof, lighter than real leather, and is comparatively soft. In some cases, the PU-based leather may tear easily, but it does not fade or crack due to exposure to sunlight. It is widely preferred in the automotive, and clothing industries. Polyurethane leather is considered more environment friendly as compared to vinyl based leather, as it does not create dioxins. PU-based leather is more expensive than PVC-based leather, due to the extensive manufacturing process required.
