Excellent by Design, Green by Tradition.

Designed by Toray, the creator of Ultrasuede^® and a leader in the field of green innovation through technology, Torale^® Luxe offers true elegance without the use of animal products. The internal layer is made through an environmentally friendly process that not only reduces CO2 emissions but also provides softness, body and substance. The external surface of the fabric is treated with a special dry process that eliminates the need for harmful chemicals and the recapturing of byproducts. The construction of Torale^® Luxe was formulated to meet industry needs for stretch and recovery—durable enough for industrial use but versatile enough for fashion, home and transportation applications, where luxury is expected.

From stain resistance to sheer comfort, from quality to lasting endurance, Torale^® Luxe is built with smart and thoughtful efficiency to complement the entire line of Ultrasuede^® products. It can be stacked while cutting, so wasted product is greatly reduced, allowing substantially more usefulness per square foot.

It's all part of Toray's long-standing commitment to building sustainable, more environmentally friendly products. This vision shines through in everything Toray does and is coupled with a relentless quest for excellence. The goal is not only to help foster a sustainable recycling society, but also to build a solid foundation for the future.

Torale^® Luxe is the true alternative to leather, a supple and pliant material for a wide range of uses. It offers the perfect union of style and savvy for today's discerning consumer. This is how the future of luxury feels.
