Migrakit test

Objective

Leather goods comprising both leather and PVC-coated canvas may experience migration from one to the other. Hence the leather colour may mark the coated canvas via contact. This test is used to check the compatibility between the various PVC canvas / leather combinations.

Principle

The test consists of pressing together the leather to be tested and a standard PVC, under highly specific temperature and humidity conditions. The result corresponds to the colour run evaluated according to the greyscale after the test.
