If artificial leather is not to be confused with pleather, why is the latter link circular? Jim.henderson ( talk) 02:26, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
I think there should be a link to leatherette but not sure of where the best place would be for it on this page. Thoughts? Akerbeltz ( talk) 15:29, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
I am proposing to close the merger between Artificial leather and vegan leather. This merger was proposed in February 2008 and there has been no opposition. Vegan leather will be a subcatagory of artificial leather. The reason for the merger is because vegan leather is not a broad enough topic to be a unique page.

I'm proposing a large merger of all of the different types of artificial leather into the section types. Many of these pages are small and orphaned. Having them in one place would be useful. -- Aronzak ( talk) 05:22, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
It's never mentioned (I think) that naugahyde came from Naugatuck, CT. The old Uniroyal plant was also used for part of the "War of the Worlds" movie shooting. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Naugyhs ( talk • contribs) 00:44, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
The external link to Veganline.com is only minimally relevant to the article. If no-one objects, I might remove it. Z57N ( talk) 10:23, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
I was in the U.S. Navy from 1974 to 1984 and Reserves till 1987. Most or all of that time Corfams were available for us to purchase. Of course, that doesn't mean Dupont still made them, but it makes the claim of a 1971 termination suspect.

Most artifical leathers are made using PVC or PU which have a more long term effect on the environment due to how long these two plastics take to biodegrade vs leather that has more of a evironmental impact during the cultivation and tanning processes.

There have been a number of companies in recent years that have begun to create faux leather by using mycelium from fungus. It's much more sustainable then regular faux leather, which is normally made out of synthetic polymers.

Vegan people probably want to know that some pu leather products are still made from animals. When it comes to shoes, I think it's pretty common.
Bycast leather Bicast leather (also spelled as bi-cast leather or bycast leather) is a material made with a split leather backing covered with an embossed layer of polyurethane or vinyl.
