Need the technical details?
Ask for the composition, specifications, care instructions and relevant test documentation for the exact material you’re considering.
Verified product sheets and certifications are not yet published here. The planning guides above are not technical data sheets.
EXPLORE BY APPLICATION
Start with your industry.
What is the difference between leather, vinyl and coated fabric?
They are different material categories with different compositions and construction. Tell us the application and composition you need, or ask for guidance. Confirm the exact material rather than relying on a leather-like appearance or category name.
Are the HK color codes actual products?
The current palettes are design concepts. All displayed HK codes are fictional reference numbers for discussing a color direction. They do not identify confirmed inventory, production colors or orderable SKUs.
How do I request samples?
Choose colors on any collection page, then use Contact Us. Your selected concept colors carry into the inquiry. The form prepares an email for you to review and send; sample availability and any charges must be confirmed.
Where can I find technical data sheets or certifications?
Request documentation for the exact material through Contact Us and choose “Technical documentation.” Verified HanKool product data sheets, test reports and certifications have not yet been added to this site.
Can I use the same material in every application?
Do not assume a material selected for one application suits another. Describe your intended use and request the relevant specifications and documentation before selection.
How should I clean and maintain a material?
Request the supplier’s care instructions for the exact product before choosing cleaners or a maintenance process. This site does not provide a universal cleaning method for different material compositions.
How are pricing, minimum quantities and delivery confirmed?
Provide your application, quantity with units, destination and timing. Request a written quote covering the actual material, minimum quantity, availability and delivery terms. No prices or delivery guarantees are published here.
Does the online inquiry place an order?
No. The form opens a draft in your own email app, or downloads a text brief. You review and send it yourself. It does not place an order, process a payment or automatically submit your information.
