Clarino™ Tirrenina™ from Kuraray is a range of unique water-borne synthetic leathers that are also available with recycled fiber content. Your designs can benefit from the countless shades and processing options offered by these environmentally conscious microfiber nonwovens.

An endless variety of colors for maximum design freedom

With Tirrenina™, Kuraray helps various industries to combine sophisticated designs and sustainability. These materials have extremely uniform stretch and elasticity and outstanding tear resistance. Thanks to their high heat resistance, Tirrenina™ man-made leathers are ideal for demanding processes such as thermomolding. To maximize design freedom, Kuraray markets this artificial leather in various thicknesses and a wide range of shades – from pale pastels to bright rainbow hues.
