Leather Protection Guardians: All About Leather Anti-mold Agent

In order to protect leather products from mildew, a variety of leather antifungal agents have been developed, which reflects the emphasis on leather products and the urgent need to protect and extend their service life. In humid environments, leather products are susceptible to mold and mildew, which not only causes cosmetic blemishes but may also affect their texture and structure, thereby reducing their service life.
1. The threat of mold to leather products
Mold is a group of microorganisms that multiply rapidly in moist, poorly ventilated environments. When leather products are exposed to such an environment, mold can easily grow on the surface, forming blemishes such as black, white or green spots. These molds not only affect the appearance of leather products, but may also cause the leather to become hard, brittle, or even crack, greatly shortening the service life of leather products.
2. The role of Leather Anti-mold Agent
The main function of leather antifungal agents is to inhibit the growth of mold, thereby protecting leather products from mold damage. These antifungal agents can form a protective film that covers the surface of the leather and prevents mold from growing on the leather. In addition to inhibiting the growth of mold, some leather antifungal agents also moisturize and protect leather, keeping it soft, smooth, looking and feeling.
3. Types and characteristics of antifungal agents
Water-based antifungal agents: This type of antifungal agent is typically water-based and does not contain harmful solvents or volatile organic compounds. They are environmentally friendly, will not cause damage to the leather surface, and are suitable for the protection of various leather products.
Alcohol antifungal agent: Contains high concentration of alcohol, which can effectively kill mold on the leather surface. However, care needs to be taken when using it to avoid discoloration or damage to some leather materials.
Leather oil: This is a commonly used leather care product. In addition to moisturizing and protecting leather, it also has a certain anti-mildew effect. Leather oil is mainly mixed with vegetable oil or animal oil and some additives. It can penetrate into the leather to increase its softness and durability.
Professional antifungal agents: These antifungal agents are usually made from chemicals and are more effective at inhibiting the growth of mold. However, specific procedures need to be followed when using it to ensure its safety and effectiveness.
Leather Anti-mold Agents have been developed to provide an effective, harmless solution with less impact on leather.
