Artificial Leather for Medical Examination and Therapy Tables
Biocompatible, durable and easy-to-clean upholstery materials for treatment, examination and therapy tables – developed for professional everyday use.
The right upholstery material for medical tables.
Artificial leather for medical tables must perform significantly better than conventional furniture upholstery. During examinations, therapy and care, the surface regularly comes into contact with people, cleaning agents and disinfectants.
Suitable biological compatibility, a closed and easy-care surface, high durability and reliable processing are therefore essential. At the same time, the material should offer a pleasant appearance and suitable colour options for medical practices, hospitals and therapy facilities.
Four AKV material concepts for medical tables and upholstery.
The appropriate material depends on the application, intensity of use, desired feel, colour and required test documentation.

What matters in everyday professional use.
Biocompatibility
Product-specific testing in accordance with relevant parts of DIN EN ISO 10993 supports material selection for sensitive and close-to-body applications.
Disinfectants
Resistance depends on the material, the product used, its concentration and contact time. The latest recommendations should therefore always be followed.
Durability
High abrasion resistance, suitable flexing endurance and robust surfaces are particularly important for frequently used medical tables.
Processing
The materials can be sewn, stapled or bonded using conventional methods. The relevant processing instructions must always be observed.

Useful information about artificial leather for medical tables.
Which artificial leather is suitable for medical tables?
The material should be selected for the specific application. Important criteria include biocompatibility, resistance to cleaning agents and disinfectants, durability, processing requirements and the necessary technical documentation.
Can every disinfectant be used?
No. Material compatibility must be considered for the specific product, its concentration and contact time. Use only suitable products and follow the latest cleaning and disinfection recommendations.
Can a single medical table be reupholstered?
AKV supplies materials from as little as one linear metre as coupons or cut lengths. This makes repairs, one-off items and smaller projects possible.
Can I receive a material sample in advance?
Yes. We will be pleased to provide original samples for a reliable assessment of colour, surface and feel.
