All the types of leather we offer are superb for book-binding, or manufacturing leather menu covers, and it really is down to personal preference as to which grain you choose. It depends on your venue, your supposed longevity of the product, whether the leather menu covers are to be used outside as well as in.
Bicast leather (also referred to as bycast, split or PU leather) is a split leather with a layer of polyurethane applied to the face and then squashed. Bycast was originally used by the shoe industry, but is now used more frequently by the furniture industry. The resulting product is cheaper than top grain leather, but more robust in terms of general wear and tear and cleaning; hence why it has also become popular with leather menu cover manufacturers.
Bonded leather or reconstituted leather is a material made from different degrees of genuine leather shared with other substance to give the illusion of real leather, but at a snippet of the price. Bonded leather can be found in furniture manufacturers, bookbinding and original fashion accessories.
Some bonded leathers contain a greater quantity of real leather and have some leather content in the product's surface - this is particularly true with leather bookbinding (menu covers), hence the leathery smell.
Full-grain leather refers to hides that have not been tampered with in order to remove imperfections, or natural marks, on the surface of the hide. The grain remains in its natural state allowing the best fiber strength and durability. The finest leather furniture and footwear are made from full-grain leather. One way to test if leather is full-grain is to lightly scratch its surface with your nail. If it leaves a lighter-colored streak, it's full-grain.
