Material Introduction
WINIW, a pioneering supplier of ethical and durable sports materials, proudly presents its Colorfast Vegan Artificial Leather for Basketball Surfaces—engineered to retain vibrant color and deliver reliable performance while ensuring cruelty-free manufacturing for basketballs. This product addresses a core need for sports brands and manufacturers: a vegan artificial leather that combines industrial-grade colorfastness with flexibility, ideal for basketball surfaces subjected to sunlight, frequent cleaning, and intense use.
Crafted with WINIW’s advanced UV-resistant vegan polymer technology, this artificial leather features a dense, non-porous surface infused with color-lock compounds that prevent fading, bleaching, or discoloration—even after 500+ hours of sunlight exposure. Unlike ordinary vegan leathers that fade quickly, it undergoes a specialized dyeing and curing process that locks in color while retaining a soft, tactile texture. The material also incorporates a scratch-resistant coating that withstands court abrasion, paired with a water-resistant barrier that repels minor moisture—a key improvement over fade-prone or fragile alternatives.
Suitable for professional, amateur, and youth basketballs (indoor/outdoor use), it caters to brands focused on sustainability, color consistency, and long-lasting aesthetics. It accepts a wide range of custom colorways (vibrant team hues, neutral tones, metallic accents) and can be customized with texture variations, aligning with design and sustainability goals. For those seeking a colorfast, cruelty-free material for basketball surfaces, this vegan artificial leather from WINIW redefines sports ball functionality and ethics.
