Why is microfiber suede fabric lighter than real suede?The main reasons why
microfiber suede fabric is lighter than real suede are as follows:
Finer fiber diameter: The fibers used in microfiber suede fabrics are typically finer than true suede fibers, at the micron level. This makes the fibers of the fabric lighter because the smaller fibers are lighter.
Textile structure design: Microfiber suede fabrics usually adopt a lightweight textile structure design, such as an open textile structure or a loose textile density, making the overall fabric lighter and thinner.
Processing technology: The processing technology for manufacturing microfiber suede fabrics is usually more refined and advanced than real suede, and can effectively control the thickness and weight of the fabric, making the fabric lighter.
Raw material characteristics: Microfiber suede fabrics usually use synthetic fibers as raw materials, such as polyester fiber or polyamide fiber. These synthetic fibers are lighter than real suede itself, so the fabrics made are also lighter.
In what ways is the sustainability of microfiber suede fabrics reflected?The sustainability aspects of
microfiber suede fabrics mainly include the following aspects:
No animal fur is used: The manufacturing process of microfiber suede fabric does not require the use of real animal fur. Compared with real suede, it does not involve the killing or exploitation of animals, reducing harm to animals, and is in line with animal protection and welfare. concept and thus be more sustainable.
Resource conservation: A series of optimization measures are usually adopted in the production process of microfiber suede fabrics, including the effective use of energy, water resources and raw materials, which reduces the waste of resources, reduces the environmental impact of production, and reflects resource conservation. and sustainability principles of recycling.
Environmentally friendly: The production process of microfiber suede fabrics usually adopts environmentally friendly production processes and technologies, which reduces pollution and damage to the environment, conforms to the concept of environmental protection, and reduces the negative impact of the production process on the environment.
Easy to clean and maintain: Microfiber suede fabrics usually have good stain resistance and easy cleaning, which can extend the service life of the product, reduce the need for frequent replacement and disposal, reduce the consumption of resources, and reflect the product of sustainable use.
Product life: Because microfiber suede fabric has good wear resistance and durability, the product has a relatively long service life, reducing the need for frequent replacement, reducing resource consumption and waste generation, and is in line with sustainability Principles of sexual development.
