BAG EQUIPMENT
MOBILE PHONE POCKET
In most AMORAI- bags a separate inner - or outer pocket for mobile phone is available. The position of the mobile phone pocket is ergonomical, so the user can reach the mobile easily and fast.
KEY HOLDER
Depeding on the bag modell, when not standard a key holder can be integrated in most of the cases. As key holder are used: eyelets, carabines, key rings.
SHOULDER STRAP
Specific AMORAI bags are equipped with a simple prolongable shoulder strap. The bag can be carried in hand or carried under one's arm, when strap is on shortest position. When prolonged, it can be worn along the body or diagonally over the shoulder. Very practical: Both hands remind free.
LOCK
Depending on type of bag, AMORAI bags are equipped with a conventional zipper, or with a dry- or magnetic zipper. We manufacture also models, which have no lock, e.g. bags for the beach, sommer bags.

WEATHER SUITABILITY
Depending on type of bag, the customer can choose between various materials. The materials used for the bag production can be water rejecting or not, depending on material type. The customer her/-himself decides, whether the specific bag is suitable for its purpose. The AMORAI pictograms give a hint on possible, general use of each product. No guarantee- or claims can be deduced.
LEATHER
Ever since leather belongs to favoured natural material of mankind. Appropriate treated, it becomes soft and and smooth. It can be manufactured also hard and stiff, according the demand. Any colouration is possible. Bags and fashion accessoires are produced out of various animal skins and dispose over specific textures.
Accordingly pretreated and groomed, leather practically remains water-repellent, is almost resistant against any weather-factor. It is normal, that leather can carry traces of former injuries, the animal experienced during it's life time. The mechanical properties of leather are good, leather is breathable. AMORAI is using high quality leather of established suppliers.
IMITATION LEATHER
Since plastic entered our world, undreamt possibilities opened up also for bag manufacturers and their clients. When properties of natural leather are compared with the properties of artificial leather, no big differences will occur, despite the fact, that artificial leather is cheaper. The industrial production allows an exact reproductibility. Using specific fabrics, artificial leather can reach terrific mechanic properties. Water-/ abrasion-resistance, printability, surface structure are a few more important factors to look upon. AMORAI is using high quality and fashionable artificial leather of established suppliers.
TARPAULIN
Tarpaulins are made of plastics. In daily, hard use on the road, they protect human beings and goods and cope with all conditions - from artic cold to extreme heat. No long ago, tarpaulin was rediscovered for bags, wallets and various fashion accessoires. Combined with other materials, tarpaulin opens up new possibilities in design and colours.
Throug using, tarpaulin has the tendency to micro-cracks on the surface, to folding, is subject to optical aging, e.g. the human skin. This effect is often wanted and we know it from the jeans- industry, where i tis succesfully applied. The micro-cracks do at no time influence or reduce the functionability of the material. Tarpauline wit a colour print on the surface are offering different creative possibilities. When rubbed against body or cloths it is possible that the colour is partially rubbed off.
Like all plastics and also other materials, tarpaulin is subjected to temperature changes. At warmth the material softens tendencially, at coldness the material stiffens. The micro-cracks can occur mainly at lower temperatures.
The mainly young customers appreciate primarily the sturdiness, the absolute water-resistant property of the material, as well as the easy cleaning and trendy colours of tarpauline. AMORAI is using tarpaulin of extra-strong quality made from the leading branded fibres, woven and coated by Europe's top producers.
AWNING FABRICS
Today awning fabrics are mainly of synthetic material, e.g. of acrylic. In fact they are used for sun protection. They withstand sun and most of them are water-repellent. Becoming wet, bags of awning fabrics should be stored at places where they can dry. Awnings are breathable, have good mechanic strength and an esthetic design. AMORAI uses awning fabrics from the leading manufacturers.
DECKCHAIR FABRICS
Deckchair fabrics are mainly of synthetic materials, or blended fabrics, made of natural and synthetic yarns. Their technical properties are similar to the awning fabrics. In touch with human skin they feel natural, are breathable, they own good mechanic properties. Mainly drafted in stripe decor, also available in single colour, they offer a variety for modern design. AMORAI uses deckchair fabrics from the leading manufacturers.
FURNISHING FABRICS, HOME TEXTILES
Upholstery- and curtain fabrics are perfectly qualified to design fancy bags and accessoires. Whether of natural- or synthetic fabrics, they are mainly robust and wear-resistant, skin-pleasant, breathable. The daily use can be watched at home, when sitting in the upholstery, or in bus, railway. AMORAI uses upholstery- and curtain fabrics from the leading manufacturers.
COATED FABRICS
Often natural- or synthetic textiles must be coated with a fabric to gain strenght and form-stability. The industry offers a variety of materials. AMORAI uses products, which are most nature and human compatible. All materials are manufactured by established producers.
INSULATION FABRIC
AMORAI is applying insulation fabric, when the use of it makes a sense. Insulation foil can be applied in shopping bags, in health care applications or for protection of industrial goods. To the client it is important to reach a preferable stable temperature inside the bag.
Insulation fabrics have in most cases an aluminium film as outer skin and various layers beneath, according to the requirements, e.g. to keep drinksor food longer cool, to protect ice cream from melting. Baby nutrition must be in contrary protected from the coldness. The insulation fabric applied in bags helps to keep goods wormer or colder, partially it can absorbe smaller shocks. AMORAI is applying high quality insulation fabric from established manufacturers.
MESH
Mesh is a fabric with small holes. The texture is usually of polyester or glass fibre plasticified. The regular puncture allows air and wind to blow through. A solid strength in combination with small weight, makes it to a high performance material. Mesh fabric is especially suitable for sommer- and shopping bags, cases and stylish shoulder-bags. With a print on the surface it can be used in almost any kind of fancy bag. Wet cloths in a bag can dry easily. Mesh fabric should, if possible, not be folded, through material- or colour separation is possible. AMORAI is applying high quality mesh from established manufacturers.
STRAPS, CORDS, ROPES
Shoulder straps and handles belong to the functionally important parts of a bag. The straps, made of natural or synthetic materials are adapted to look of the bag. For heavily loaded straps, or for bags with a special aesthetics AMORAI is using car safety belts, made of polyester. These belts, accepted from the car industry, fulfill the highest requirements on the tensile strength and optics. Beside that, we are using high quality and beautifull coloured polypropylene (PP) belts.
Belts made of polyester (PES) or polyamide (PA) can be mechanically more stressed and are more wear resistant than the ones from polypropylene, but also more expensive. Through using more affordable polypropylene belts, a wider scale of colours is achievable. AMORAI is using high quality straps, cords and ropes made of PP, PES and PA from established manufacturers.
PLASTIC PARTS
The function of those small parts is often underestimated. A bracket- or buckle failure causes in many cases, that a bag becomes worthless or an expensive repair is necessary. For sustaining and high stressed parts AMORAI bags are equipped with polyamide parts, where ever possible. PA 6 is a material with excellent mechanical properties, impact-resistance. Polyamide is a material with better mechanical properties at higher temperatures and even better behaviour at low temperatures, as buckles made of other materials, e.g. polypropylene (PP). AMORAI is using buckles from leading manufacturers.
METAL PARTS, EYELETS
In various articles of the AMORAI assortment we are using high quality metal parts with the appropriate surface treatment, e.g. chrome-plated eyelets, key rings, snap hooks. Partially we are using stainless steel parts as well. Our aim is to offer the client the best for the price and therefore we are using semi-finished products only from established manufacturers.
MATERIAL CARE
LEATHER
Leather can:
- bleach. Never leave objects behind car window being exposed to direct sun and heat.
- become brittle, dry out, when not treated. Never leave leather goods in completly dried rooms or dry them in an oven or on a radiator. Leather can stiffened.
- become dappled. Never leave leather goods in humid rooms, hang them on wet walls. Never leave them in plastic bag, so they can not breathe. Store leather dry and on the air.
When soiled, never scrub surface hard, since dirt enters the pores. Instead, slightly dab, remove dirt gently. Work torwards the middle of the mark, so it becomes not bigger. New grease spots eventually bespread with chalk- or magnesium powder, soak up or slightly dab with clean tissue. Leave chalk- powder for a few hours, brush away carefully. Glue or adhesives may be carefully removed with white coloured eraser. Marks of ball pen may be withdrawn, when adhesive tape is pressed onto the mark and slightly taken away. Dab rests of dirt away, use no circulary rub.
Never use solvents like: acetone, nail laquer remover, benzene, when heavily dirty. Use no shoe care or household detergent products. Colour and structure of the leather could become harmed.
All mentioned tips are to be understood as general hints. Depending on the leather character a necessary prevention and cleaning is necessary. Please, get specific informations from supplier of cleansing technology..
IMITATION LEATHER
Similar to natural leather avoid imitation leather being exposed unnecessarily to sunlight, UV- radiation. Bleaching out and rigidity is possible. Store, when ever possible, at dry places, so it can breath. Depending on surface, remove dirt with a clean, moistured tissue. Shagreened surfaces clean eventually with a soft brush. Compact surfaces clean with slightly soaped water, 2%, with a soft tissue. Rinse with clean water, let it dry.
All hints are of general nature. Please check each specific case with supplier of cleansing technology.
TARPAULIN
Clean tarpaulin with slightly soaped water, 2%, with a tissue or a soft brush. Let it dry, store tarpaulin on a dry place. Avoid direct sun light. Do not fold, wrinkle bag of tarpauline unnecessarily, so possible micro-cracs are reduced. All given hints are of general nature. Please check each specific case with supplier of cleansing technology.
AWNING FABRICS
Please make sure: when awning fabric becomes humid or wet, it gets enough air, so it becomes dry. Keep bags stored in airy rooms. Grease-and oil spots clean with petroleum ether or dab with a dry, absorptive, clean tissue. Contaminations can penetrate into the surface, when removed with circular movements. Doing basic cleaning, use sponge or a soft brush with a 2% soapy water. Afterwards rinse with clean water and dry well. Please check each specific case with supplier of cleansing technology.
DECKCHAIR FABRICS
Clean deckchair fabrics with soap water, 2%, and a soft brush. Rinse with clean water. Grease- and oil spots dab with a dry and clean tissue, do not rub. Do not necessarily expose to the sun light. Please check each specific case with supplier of cleansing technology.
MESH
Clean mesh with slightly soapy water, 2%, and a soft brush. Rinse with clean water and let it dry. Grease- and oil spots dab with a dry and clean tissue, do not rub. Do not necessarily expose to the sun light. Please check each specific case with supplier of cleansing technology.
