PURPOSE AND DISTINCTIVENESS After having developed the patent (finalized in 2011) and the first experiences in the production of components (2012), the application of Tecnocad Foaming originates in the first prototype demonstrator of our technology: NUMERO 1. Within its shapes, conceived to exalt the potential of in-mould leather upholstery, several peculiarities have been integrated which can be realized solely with the application of the patented technology. These shapes assume a degree of absolute difficulty if associated to the noble softness of the foamed component. This degree of softness would not allow the exact realization of the conceived shapes during the traditional method of manual upholstery. The component is made out of a single piece of leather skin, stitched to form before moulding. The use of multiple pieces of leather stitched together increases the degree of personalization in terms of materials, colours and shapes. The use of a noble material like genuine leather and the variety of personalization that can be obtained, makes the foamed component an exclusive and customized product, even being realized with standard production equipment.
