skai® Faux leather

With skai® artificial leather we offer an excellent surface material. The imitation leather convinces internationally with its enormous variety of applications in the interior design of high-quality living and object areas, but also in the medical sector or for outdoor applications. Our artificial leather effortlessly meets all requirements with regard to fire protection (B1 certified) and comfort - and thus provides a good alternative to genuine leather. Perfectly coordinated collections and innovations allow upholstery solutions, furniture fronts and floor panels of all kinds to merge into a single unit. Synthetic leather made of PVC plastic scores above all with durability and thus stands for genuine quality.

Contract furnishing

The contract sector places high demands on our skai® upholstery fabrics. Materials used for headboards in hotels and on cruise ships or for seating in restaurants and stadiums must have flame-retardant properties to protect passengers and guests if there’s an emergency. Our products meet a wide variety of flammability standards. skai® Parotega NF and skai® Palma NF fulfil the strict building material class 1, meaning they comply with the very strictest flame retardant directives.

The materials chosen for contract furnishing applications should be highly durable and suitable for the task at hand. Seats in areas with a high number of visitors need to offer good abrasion resistance to stop the furniture wearing. skai® Pandoria Plus can withstand 100,000 Martindale cycles, meaning it complies with the most stringent requirements.

Furniture designers and manufacturers

When creating their pieces, furniture manufacturers and designers as well as interior designers and decorators find real inspiration in the attractive designs, strong structures and on-trend colors of our artificial leathers. Time and again, they use our products to conjure up irresistible, emotionally impactful living spaces – regardless of whether the materials are applied to couches, armchairs or walls. Just look around and it becomes quite clear that our products have found their way into all corners of our day-to-day lives: at home, in the car, at work, on holiday and in our downtime. In every situation, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They enrich and add beauty to our lives. They make us feel nice and comfortable at any hour of the day or night.

With skai® cool colors Venezia and skai® Neptun, we offer innovative upholstery materials for outdoor applications. skai® cool colors Venezia is a high-quality upholstery fabric for outdoor use whose surface significantly reduces the warming of the upholstery material in direct sunlight. Special cool colors pigments reflect up to 80% of near-infrared radiation. This reduces the heating of the upholstery material by up to 25%. This outstanding technology has already proven itself in other business areas, such as convertible seat covers or window frames.

Here applies: The darker the color, the greater the effect. In the outdoor sector, skai® cool colors Venezia now allows the use of colored synthetics across the entire spectrum, which was previously problematic due to heating.

The outdoor material skai® Neptune – either in Caleri or Pescara embossing – is also available in many summer colors. It has everything an upholstery material needs to withstand all weather conditions. The extremely robust material is lightfast and waterproof. All other values are also far above the norm. This makes the surface a successful long seller, especially for outdoor use, for example in cafés and restaurants. 

Synthetic leather is perfect for those who avoid animal products. Artificial leather is easy to clean and very hard-wearing. It can be produced in lengths sold by the meter, is reproducible and can feature a wide variety of embossing styles – for example including seams, fabric textures, stitching and technical designs.

A comprehensive color palette and varied designs

Thanks to its natural look and feel, our skai® leather is almost indistinguishable from the real thing. But our imaginative designs create a surface that looks completely new and unique. Whether skai® patterned leather or with a leather look, the diverse range of designs are available in a variety of on-trend colors – from bold red and classic anthracite through to warm orange shades. They can also be shipped at short notice.
