What are PU and TPU?

With the rapid development of science and technology, the field of materials is constantly innovating. PU (polyurethane) and TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) are leading the wave of innovation in the fabric and footwear industry with their excellent performance and wide range of applications.

PU and TPU membrane have a number of excellent properties, including: Light weight and high strength: light weight, high strength, good wear resistance, give the product a longer service life. Flexible and comfortable: Excellent elasticity and soft touch, providing excellent wearing comfort. Waterproof and breathable: The microporous structure effectively blocks liquid water while allowing water vapor to pass through and keep you dry. Bio-friendly and safe: PU/TPU materials can be biodegradable or recycled, in line with environmental protection trends.

PU/TPU membrane are increasingly used in the field of fabrics, bringing revolutionary changes to apparel and home textile products. In terms of waterproof and breathable fabrics, PU/TPU film composite technology is adopted, which is widely used in outdoor clothing, tents, sleeping bags, etc., to provide consumers with all-weather comfort protection. PU imitation leather looks and closes to real leather, and is lighter, easy to clean, and lower cost, and is widely used in sofas, seats, bags, shoes and clothing, etc. The fabric made of TPU elastane fiber has excellent elasticity and good recovery, and is widely used in tights, sportswear, swimwear, etc., providing good support and comfort for sports enthusiasts.

Shoe material application: comprehensive improvement of comfort and performance.The application of PU/TPU membrane in the field of footwear materials has also attracted much attention, bringing new vitality to the footwear industry. PU/TPU soles are lightweight, wear-resistant, and have excellent cushioning performance, and are widely used in sports shoes, casual shoes, etc., to provide consumers with a comfortable wearing experience. PU/TPU insoles are soft and elastic, which can effectively relieve foot pressure and improve wearing comfort. PU/TPU membrane is used to make shoe uppers to give shoes waterproof, moisture permeable, lightweight and other characteristics, improving the functionality and comfort of shoes.
