Notepad cover leather material detailed explanation
The leather materials commonly used for notepads and notebook covers include genuine leather and imitation leather. Because customized customers often do not have the professional knowledge of this booklet of leather goods, the following is a detailed explanation for you:
Imitation leather: microfiber, imitation leather, mid-range imitation leather, PU, PVC plastic leather. The price of microfiber is basically the same as the price of two-layer leather, and its softness, toughness, and wear resistance are excellent. The artificial leather is artificially resynthesized from the material of genuine leather, and the quality is also very good.
The difference between PU and PVC is mainly from the production process. The softness and wear resistance of PU are better than that of PVC, and the price is several times that of it. However, this is only in general. For example, the LV Notepad uses PVC, but its price is the level of luxury.
Genuine leather: The genuine leather used for the book, usually cowhide, sheepskin, crocodile skin, ostrich skin, etc. The most commonly used in this book is cowhide. The cowhide is divided into the first layer of leather and the second layer of leather. The price of the first layer of leather is much higher than that of the second layer of leather. Leather imported from abroad will be much more expensive than domestically produced leather.
For the above materials, in terms of texture, the first layer of natural leather is the best, which is incomparable to imitation leather anyway. But the price is also very high. Generally, high-end business customers choose to use the first layer of leather. Taking into account the budget and other conditions, imitation leather is the most popular leather material now. Another major feature of imitation leather is that it has many varieties of designs and colors. There are more than 500 kinds of imitation leathers that we commonly use, which are very rich. The choice is huge. Especially in recent years, the new color-changing imitation leather is very suitable for the embossing, bronzing and silvering of the LOGO of the book.
