No more annoying odours, a comfortable feel solution for furniture leather | Decision’s Premium Recommendations
“When the years have gone by and everything is gone, only the smell in the air remains to keep the past alive.”
It is often impossible to remember the details of what happened decades ago, but there is always a clear recollection of the smells that permeated the situation at that time, and it seems that you can re-feel the emotions and feelings of that time when you smelled it.Leather smells, and it seems that it should smell good. Some fine brands, for example, like to use leather as an aftertone in their perfumes.
Leather could indeed be fragrant, when the old European tanners used only lime, vegetable tannins and olive oil.The development of technological applications has brought efficiency, convenience and reliable physical properties to the leather industry, but it has also brought odours, of the bad kind. Certain types of leather are very prone to odour problems and disturbances due to specific stylistic needs and closed use scenarios, such as furniture leather.
Furniture leather often needs a soft, full, moist and comfortable feel, which is best achieved with natural oils and fatliquours. However, natural oils and fatliquors tend to produce annoying odours. The main factors influencing odour problems are shown below: -

What are foams?
They are magic floating above the rainbows;
They are the charming glow on the hair of our loved one;
They are the trails left behind when a dolphin dives into the deep blue ocean…To tanners, foams are caused by mechanical treatments (inside the drums or by paddles), that encapsulated air inside the surfactant components of the working fluid and formed a mixture of gas and liquid.
Foams are inevitable during the wet end process. That is because, in the wet end process, especially the retanning stage，water, surfactants and mechanical treatments are the three main factor of the cause of foams, yet these three factors exist nearly throughout the process.Amongst the three factors, surfactant is one of the essential materials used during the tanning process. The uniform and stable wetting of crust and the penetration of chemicals into the crust all depend on it. However, a substantial amount of surfactant could cause the problems of foams. Too much foams could bring about problems for the proceeding of the tanning process. For instance, it might affect the even penetration, absorption, fixation of chemicals.

Super soft synthetic fatliquor DESOPON USF | Decision Premium Recommendations
Softness
In the hills of Ecuador grows a grass called toquilla, the stems of which can be woven into hats after some treatment. This hat was popular with the workers on the Panama Canal because it was light, soft and breathable, and was known as the “Panama hat”. You can roll the whole thing up, put it through a ring and unfold it without a wrinkle. So it’s usually packaged in a cylinder and rolled up when not being worn, making it easy to carry around.
One of Bernini’s most celebrated sculptures is the magical “Pluto Snatching Persephone”, where Bernini created what is probably the “softest” marble in human history, expressing the supreme beauty of marble in its “softness”.
Softness is the basic perception that gives humans a sense of identity. Humans like softness, perhaps because it does not bring us harm or risk, but only security and comfort. If all sofas in American homes were Chinese solid wood funniture, there must not be so many couch potatoes, right?
Therefore, for leather, softness has always been one of the most recognised properties by consumers. Whether it is clothing, furniture, or carseat.
The most effective product for the softness in the leather-making is fatliquor.
The softness of the leather is the result rather than the aim of fatliquor, which is to prevent the fibre structure from re-adhesion during the drying (dehydration) process.
But in any case, the use of fatliquors, especially certain natural ones, can result in very soft and comfortable leathers. However, there are also problems: most natural fatliquors have an unpleasant smell or yellowing because of the large number of unsaturated bonds in their structure. Synthetic fatliquors, on the other hand, do not suffer from this problem, but they are often not as soft and comfortable as required.Decision has one product that solves this problem and achieves extraordinary performance:
