Fire Resistance Test
This video demonstrates the superior flame-retardant performance of our automotive leather.
On the left, our leather resists ignition, burns slowly, and produces minimal smoke.
On the right, standard leather ignites within 5 seconds and releases dense, toxic smoke.
In the event of a vehicle fire, our leather can provide critical extra seconds for occupants to escape safely.
Designed to meet rigorous automotive safety standards, it’s ideal for enhancing both protection and peace of mind.

The results of a 300-day outdoor durability test for automotive leather seats. After prolonged exposure to sunlight, rain, and natural weather conditions, the leather surface remains intact with no signs of damage, fading, or cracking. In addition, the leather has successfully passed constant temperature testing and rapid temperature change testing, demonstrating exceptional durability and stable quality—making it an ideal choice for long-term use in demanding environments.
Why We Developed Silicone Leather for Automotive Use
Every year, countless tragic accidents are caused by vehicle fires. In those critical moments, every second matters. Traditional car interiors often ignite quickly, leaving little time for escape.
That is why we set out to develop automotive-grade silicone leather — a material engineered with exceptional flame-retardant properties. By slowing down the spread of fire, it provides precious extra time for passengers to evacuate safely.
Our silicone leather has passed multiple international certifications for safety, durability, and environmental responsibility. Beyond automotive interiors, its performance makes it suitable for a wide range of applications — from public transportation and aviation to furniture, medical equipment, and lifestyle products.
This is more than just material innovation. It’s about protecting lives, raising safety standards, and expanding possibilities across industries.

Leather Categories
PVC Leather
PVC leather is a type of synthetic leather made by applying or laminating polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resin, plasticizers, stabilizers, and other additives onto fabric as a base material.
PU Leather
PU leather, also known as polyurethane leather, is created by coating fabric or other textiles with a layer of polyurethane resin. Through special finishing processes, it is textured, dried, and solidified into a synthetic leather that mimics natural leather.
Microfiber Leather
Microfiber leather is a type of PU leather made with ultra-fine fibers processed through carding, needle-punching, and non-woven techniques. After wet processing, impregnation with PU resin, and finishing steps such as buffing and dyeing, it forms a durable synthetic leather with a three-dimensional structure.
Silicone Leather
Silicone leather is an eco-friendly material made by combining silicone with base fabrics using a solvent-free process. It features custom-designed textures and surfaces, formed in a single molding process, making it a new-generation sustainable leather.
