Leather Paper

Leather Paper Overview

It provides a paper-based surface for book covers, diaries, gift boxes, cases and presentation folders without describing the substrate as genuine leather.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is leather paper made from genuine leather?

No. This product is a paper- or board-based decorative covering embossed and finished to reproduce a leather-effect grain. It should not be described or labeled as genuine leather.

Can leather-effect paper be printed, foil stamped or glued?

Selected grades can support printing, foil, die-cutting, wrapping and gluing, but the grain, coating and substrate affect adhesion and detail. Test the actual sample with the intended process before production.

Can you provide an animal-component-free declaration?

Only when the composition of the exact grade has been checked and the required declaration is available. Send the intended market, claim wording, pattern, color, substrate, quantity and converting method for confirmation.
