PU / Vegan Leather or Leatherette
Whether it’s called artificial leather, leatherette or imitation leather, PEP (plastic-coated fabric) or Skai (registered trademark), many different types of material with more or less the same qualities as leather can be found, mainly used in furniture, footwear, leather goods, clothing or car seats. The way such materials are manufactured varies enormously. Synthetic leather, made using plastic, is often used for clothing.
