Thermo
An important contributor to comfort level is temperature, which is why you must choose your materials and colour wisely.
Light absorbed by dark surfaces is converted into thermal energy, which radiates as heat. Thermo Leather™ is a last-generation performance leather that uses sun-reflective technology to reduce absorbed energy by 60%.
The temperature difference between standard leather and Thermo Leather™ increases with the duration and intensity of sun exposure. In extreme cases, the temperature difference can be more than 25°C.
The Thermo Leather™ treatment can improve the thermal comfort for any upholstery application.
