KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 4 (Bernama) -- Pangea, a global supplier of automotive leather, announced its standard and advanced products hold antimicrobial properties without the need for chemical additives commonly advertised to improve this performance.
The tanned substrate rich in natural components and the leather coating layers act to inhibit the biological functions of contaminating microbes tested, meaning they cannot grow or reproduce on such a surface.
According to a statement, Pangea, a tier-3 supplier to over 25 automotive brands, commissioned testing of its leathers to antimicrobial activity against three clinically relevant pathogens, thus as a results, these leathers have the ability to reduce living bacterial cells by 99.99 per cent.
The testing was performed by an International Organization for Standardization (ISO) certified product test laboratory in North America and replicated in Europe for the PureTan formulated leather products in 2023 by another accredited lab.
Pangea leathers inherently carry antimicrobial characteristics, without coating additives. Advancements in leather manufacturing and testing applications have made it easier to keep seating surfaces as clean as can be.
Pangea's announcement is a significant development in the automotive industry, as it provides a natural solution to the growing demand for antimicrobial products.
With Pangea's standard and advanced products, car buyers can rest assured that they are getting a high-quality, safe and clean product.
