PU material: the "treasure material" for bag customization

Many people confuse PU with PVC and genuine leather, but in fact, they are very different. The full name of PU is "polyurethane", which is an artificially synthesized material. However, unlike PVC, which has a "tough and cheap feeling", high-quality PU feels soft and elastic to the touch, and can even imitate the delicate texture of genuine leather - such as lychee pattern and oil wax pattern. It is almost difficult to distinguish the difference without close inspection. ​
Compared to genuine leather, PU has obvious advantages: genuine leather relies on animal leather, is expensive, and styles are limited by leather characteristics; PU can be adjusted through craftsmanship to create various textures such as glossy, frosted, and crocodile patterns, and the colors can also be more vibrant.

1. Lightweight and soft, carrying no burden
Compared to natural leather, PU material is more lightweight. When you customize a PU material bag, whether it's a simple tote bag for daily commuting or a multifunctional backpack for travel, it won't put too much burden on your shoulders. Its soft touch is also excellent, which can fit the body curve well and make it more comfortable and comfortable to use. For example, some small and exquisite PU material crossbody bags can be carried on the body with almost no weight, but can easily accommodate daily necessities such as phones, wallets, keys, etc., making travel easy and convenient.

2. Wear and scratch resistant, durable and long-lasting
In daily use, bags are inevitably subject to friction and collision with various objects, so wear resistance is one of the important indicators for measuring bag quality. The surface coating of PU material gives it excellent wear and scratch resistance, making it more durable than some natural materials such as calf leather. Even if you often carry your bag and shuttle through crowds, or place it on rough surfaces, it is not easy for scratches and wear to occur. This is undoubtedly a huge advantage for bags that require frequent use.

3. Waterproof and stain resistant, easy to maintain
In daily life, it is inevitable to encounter rainy days or accidentally spilling drinks on bags. At this time, the waterproof and stain resistant performance of bags becomes particularly important. PU material has the characteristic of not absorbing water, with a smooth surface and less likely for stains to adhere. If you accidentally dirty your bag, simply wipe it gently with a damp cloth to easily remove dust and dirt without the need for a complicated cleaning process.

4. Strong plasticity and flexible design
PU material has strong plasticity and can simulate various textures and colors through different processes. This provides rich design inspiration and possibilities for customized bags, allowing for the creation of unique personalized bags based on different needs and styles.

Although PU material has many advantages, proper maintenance methods can extend the service life of bags and keep them in good condition at all times.

PU material occupies an important position in the field of customized bags due to its lightweight, soft, wear-resistant, scratch resistant, waterproof and stain resistant, low cost, and strong plasticity. If you are considering customizing a bag, why not choose PU material? I believe it will bring you unexpected surprises.
