what is tacto peil as in a material for a sofa?

Question

I am looking for a sofa and found one online from a guy. He says the material is tacto piel. I know Spanish but do not understand what this material would be? skin touch? leather? plastic? Help! gracias -

Answer 1

It appears to be imitation leather made from synthetic. "Feels like leather."

In the 1960's in the U.S. we had Naugahyde a form of "pleather" (plastic leather). "How many nauga's died for that sofa?" we used to ask.

Answer 2

Tacto piel is a material that looks like leather and feels like it but is not real leather, meaning it is vynil leather. Check this website it has that type of material.

Answer 4

Ask him. I looked around for you, but couldn't find an answer. I wonder if it could either be leather, or if he's saying that the material "feels great to the touch, or feels great to sit on"
