Does “genuine leather” define quality?
No. It is too broad for a manufacturing brief. Specify the leather article, layer or split, tannage, finish, substance and construction.
What should be requested for PU?
Composition, backing, thickness, surface direction and performance requirements such as flexing or hydrolysis where relevant.

Backing affects hand feel, strength, edge behavior, bonding and long-term surface performance.
