Report Overview
Artificial Leather is a material designed to mimic the appearance and texture of natural leather, widely used in various applications such as clothing, footwear, handbags, furniture, and automotive interiors. It is typically made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyurethane (PU), or other synthetic resins. Compared to genuine leather, Artificial Leather offers several advantages, including lower production costs, ease of cleaning and maintenance, and a wider variety of colors and textures. Additionally, because it does not require animal sources, it is often favored for its animal welfare and environmental benefits. Although Artificial Leather may closely resemble real leather in appearance and feel, its durability and breathability are often inferior. However, with advancements in material science, many new types of Artificial Leather are continually improving, becoming increasingly comparable to natural leather. The applications of Artificial Leather are also expanding, particularly in the fashion industry, where designers explore its innovative potential to meet the demand for sustainable practices.
The global Artificial Leather market size is projected to grow from US$ 18990 million in 2024 to US$ 27600 million in 2030; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% from 2024 to 2030.
