CLARINO™ is a man-made leather pioneered by Kuraray in 1964, and is widely used in daily life.
With its elegant appearance, light weight, flexibility, water resistance, and easy maintenance, CLARINO™ is valued for a wide range of applications, including school backpacks, shoes, gloves, clothing, and interior goods.

CLARINO™ is a man-made leather that closely resembles genuine leather.

There are three main types of leather-like materials made artificially: general synthetic leather, PVC leather, and man-made leather.
CLARINO™ replicates the natural structure of genuine leather to deliver premium performance and durability.

Kuraray was the first in the world to successfully commercialize man-made leather in 1964.

Since its development, driven by the researchers’ belief to ‘start with the most challenging,’ Kuraray has overcome numerous failures and challenges to evolve into high-performance CLARINO™—combining light weight, water resistance, strength and durability, smooth texture, and a rich variety of colors.
