message: If artificial leather is not to be confused with pleather, why is the latter link circular?  Jim.henderson (talk) 02:26, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess there was once a separate "pleather" topic.  I've replaced the circular link with a link to the Pleather section of the page. 82.73.220.144 (talk) 14:39, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I'm proposing a large merger of all of the different types of artificial leather into the section types. Many of these pages are small and orphaned. Having them in one place would be useful. -- Aronzak (talk) 05:22, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

message: Most artifical leathers are made using PVC or PU which have a more long term effect on the environment due to how long these two plastics take to biodegrade vs leather that has more of a evironmental impact during the cultivation and tanning processes.

replies: text: I will look over my sources and let you know if I have any questions. I also wanted your opinion of a possible addition or building up on the faux leathers in the brand names section that are not plastic based and are sustainable and far more biodegradable epsically considering there are so many more alternatives to petrolium based plastic now other than paper, cork, or banana leaves.

thread_title:  Proposal for adding evironmental effects of artificial leather 

message: There have been a number of companies in recent years that have begun to create faux leather by using mycelium from fungus. It's much more sustainable then regular faux leather, which is normally made out of synthetic polymers.

message: Vegan people probably want to know that some pu leather products are still made from animals. When it comes to shoes, I think it's pretty common.
Bycast leather Bicast leather (also spelled as bi-cast leather or bycast leather) is a material made with a split leather backing covered with an embossed layer of polyurethane or vinyl.
Sorry, I'm out of touch on the etiquette of editing a wikipedia page. --Uzetaab (talk) 00:19, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: New comments go on the bottom of the page. And bicast leather and binded leather are different products than wholly artificial leather, the subject of this article. It doesn't need to be mentioned here. oknazevad (talk) 13:35, 28 July 2023 (UTC)
