How Does Color Matching Work in Artificial Leather?

Color matching is both art and science. Our technicians use precision colorimeters and pigment databases to analyze your sample’s color composition. Whether you provide a Pantone code or a physical swatch, we can reproduce the exact shade you want — on PU or PVC leather.

We know how sensitive color can be, especially for large-scale furniture or bag production. That’s why our team tests every formulation under standard light sources before finalizing the batch.

What Information Should Buyers Provide?

To achieve perfect color consistency, please share:

• Your Pantone number, color photo, or physical leather sample

• Desired surface finish (matte, glossy, or embossed)

• The application (furniture, car seats, bags, or shoes)

Once these details are confirmed, we’ll create a lab sample for your approval before mass production. This ensures the final product meets your exact expectations—no surprises, no mismatched tones.

How Long Does Custom Color Production Take?

Custom color samples usually take 3–5 days to prepare, with bulk production completed in about 15–20 working days after approval.
For customized colors, the MOQ (minimum order quantity) is typically 500 meters per color, with a ±10% variation depending on the production process.
If you choose from our ready-to-ship collections, there’s no MOQ limit—even 1 meter is available for sampling.

How to Ensure Color Consistency Between Batches

At ZD Leather, we understand that brand reputation depends on visual consistency.
To guarantee every batch matches perfectly, we:

• Compare each lot under D65 daylight lamps

• Keep retained samples for reference

• Conduct QC checks during coating and embossing

So whether you reorder today or six months later, your leather color remains consistent.

Can You Customize Both Color and Texture?

Absolutely. We can replicate both color and texture from your physical sample — including fine-grain, pebble, crocodile, suede, or metallic finishes.
Want something unique? We also provide custom embossing and surface treatments like anti-scratch, UV resistance, or soft-touch coatings.
