Wang Weicheng, the boss of a local nonwovens equipment factory, told reporters that once he went to Italy to travel and bought a pair of leather shoes, he found that the bottom material was actually non-woven. He said, "these shoes are seven thousand or eight thousand yuan, and they are not real leather. Later, I realized that many leather shoes in Europe are made of backing materials, because the permeability and softness have higher advantages." However, not all non-woven fabrics can be used to make leather shoes. Good equipment can produce materials that meet the requirements. Since last year, Wang Weicheng has jointly developed and produced a nanofiber production line at Donghua University, which can be widely applied to many new fields such as artificial skin.
