Faux Leather Fabrics – Stylish Upholstery UK Supplier

Faux leather fabrics, also known as synthetic leather or vegan leather, are man-made materials designed to mimic the appearance and texture of genuine leather. They are typically made by coating a fabric base—such as polyester, cotton, or nylon—with layers of polyurethane (PU) or polyvinyl chloride (PVC), then embossing the surface to create a leather-like grain and finish. Faux leather offers a durable, cost-effective, and animal-friendly alternative to real leather, with a wide variety of colors, finishes, and textures available, from smooth and glossy to matte, distressed, or patterned. It is water-resistant and easy to clean, though less breathable and supple than natural leather.
