Our PU synthetics and coatings imitate natural leather in color, texture, feel and strength. This makes them well-suited to sports shoes and boots of all kinds, ball covers, sports bags, straps, trims and parts for various sporting equipment. The INSQIN® range, in particular, is ideal for sporting applications. It's high-quality water-based PU coating binders, Impranil® and Impraperm®, and Imprafix® crosslinkers remain durable for the lifetime of a sports product thanks to UV-, abrasion-, scratch-, tear-, and impact-resistant properties. And while our synthetics might be artificial, they offer very real environmental benefits thanks to the use of water-based PU. We invite designers and manufacturers to work with us in creating any original shades and textures required.
