Rise in Demand from Footwear Industry Expected to Drive World Synthetic Leather Market over the Forecast Period: Ken Research

Synthetic leather is a man-made artificial leather which looks like natural leather, also known as faux leather. Synthetic leather is marketed under numerous names such as vegan leather, faux leather, leatherette, and pleather. Its surface is treated & dyed with certain additives to provide them an ordinary look just as natural leather. It is often used as a substitute for real leather as it is less costly and does not require any real animal hide. It is available in various colors, leading to them being used in a wide number of industries for instance footwear, garments, automobile, and fashion accessories such as wallets, bags, etc. The key properties are easy maintenance, high strength, UV resistance and more ductile & high gloss finish.
