Summer climates tend to be humid and muggy, with high humidity in the air. If you have leather sofas at home, you need to pay attention to mildew and moisture prevention. Leather sofas are prone to mildew and are difficult to clean. Many people spend tens of thousands of dollars on leather sofas during interior decoration, only to find them covered in mildew in the summer. It's truly heartbreaking. Don't worry if your leather sofa has mildew; below, we'll guide you through the causes and solutions for mildew on TPU leather sofas. (Mildew remover, mildew-resistant and antibacterial agent)

The growth of mold requires three factors: temperature, humidity, and nutrients. First, leather contains nutrients for mold growth. Leather is a processed product of natural high-molecular compounds, its main components being collagen protein and fat. During leather processing, large amounts of animal and plant oils, inorganic salts and minerals, and casein are added, all of which are excellent nutrient sources for mold growth. Second, damp leather provides the right humidity for bacteria. These conditions lead to mold growth.

1. If a leather sofa is left uncleaned for a long time, its surface will be covered with dust, oil, and other dirt, leading to the accumulation of microorganisms and bacteria, eventually forming mold. For minor mold, you can use a vacuum cleaner to remove surface mold. Applying a little toothpaste can improve the effect. However, wipe it clean with a dry cloth afterward.

2. In winter or colder weather, some of the oil on the surface of leather sofas (leather itself contains a certain amount of oil) may solidify into an oily frost. This oily frost can be removed by increasing the temperature and wiping it with a dry cloth. However, be careful not to raise the temperature too high, as this could damage the leather structure.

3. If the mildew on a TPU leather sofa is severe, widespread, and shows significant damage, professional repair is necessary. If there is only mildew, you can use a leather mildew remover, applying it to a clean soft cloth and wiping the mildewed surface. Leather mildew removers can kill the growth of various molds such as Mucor and Rhizopus in relatively humid environments. It is also harmless to the material, making it suitable for both home use and leather sofa factories. (Mildew remover, mildew-resistant and antibacterial agent)

4. During the rainy season when humidity is high, you can apply mildew-proofing treatment to the sofa. Use a leather mildew remover to spray a protective antibacterial film on the surface, preventing further mildew due to excessive moisture.
