Sustainable synthetic leather

Upholstery Journal | June 2008

The Baiksan Lintex Corporation, a South Korea–based fabric manufacturer, has added an Estman Chemical Company product to its Cleanoble synthetic leather. The addition, EastONE, when added to Cleanoble, allows the microfibers to be released through a water wash rather than a harsh chemical treatment process. The result is a more environmentally friendly, sustainable synthetic leather manufacturing process. EastONE polymer can be recovered for secondary uses, and the water wash can continually be recycled.
