Launch of new material at Busworld 2017

E-Leather will be exhibiting their engineered leather composite materials at Busworld, Kortrijk from 20th until 25th October and are excited to showcase the latest innovation that has been specifically engineered for their bus and coach collection.

E-Leather has been supplying sustainably manufactured, high-performance materials to the transport industry for ten years and has become the interior seating material of choice for a number of reasons. It’s inherently lightweight structure combined with enhanced durability means operators can reduce costs in fuel and maintenance, or repairs, as their seats maintain a higher quality and cleaner finish for longer periods of time. Using at least 50% leather fibre in every roll means the materials have the quality look and feel of traditional leather, with the consistency of an engineered product. It also dramatically reduces waste in manufacturing and increases yield compared to a leather hide.

Alex Bennett, Business Manager Ground Transport says: “We can help operators achieve highly desirable interiors through a vast range of colours, designs and finishes, helping their vehicle stand out while improving operational costs and providing a better passenger experience.”
