台灣合成皮工業，可追溯至1950年代中期石化工業創建，所生產之PVC塑膠皮，直至1969年永豐化工自日本引進之PU合成皮製造技術，廣泛將PU合成皮產品運用於衣、住、行、娛樂等民生消費用品上，PU合成皮產業於台灣發展已有三十年以上的歷史。
PU合成皮產業，屬石化工業的一環，產品仍然是工業產品階段，需交由下游產業加工後，才得以供消費者使用。台灣的合成皮產業與下游製鞋業緊密結合，曾於1990年代，創下世界最大產量的記錄，台灣遂有「製鞋王國」、「合成皮王國」等美譽。
傳統PU合成皮產業，進入障礙低，產品替代性高，競爭在所難免；中國大陸及東南亞合成皮業者引進台灣技術，挾其大量生產低成本優勢，經過10多年來發展，已經成功搶佔一般PU產品的市場，台灣PU合成皮產業面對外來的強力競爭環境，隨時會有被淘汰的危機，在傳統PU製品上，研發創新、提昇品質、降低成本，並不能阻止新產品於發表後即遭仿冒的結果。因應PU合成皮產業少量多樣的趨勢，業者應如何致力於製程的創新，以縮短作業流程，以提昇競爭力。
台灣PU合成皮產業成長停滯，有愈來愈多的企業，被迫面對外移關廠或者轉型到其它具附加價值的產品線，本研究以個案公司為例，探討其轉型策略，其建構自有品牌及行銷通路，與消費者直接接觸，自有品牌可否成為PU合成皮業的轉型契機，以及工業品牌轉型至消費性產品品牌所面臨問題的探討。
關鍵字：合成皮、競爭策略、品牌、普大皮革 / The industry of synthetic leather in Taiwan could trace back to the middle of 1950s which initiated from the PVC production at Taiwan’s new established petrochemistry industry until the Yoong Feng Chemistry Inc has introduced from Japan the technic of PU production in 1969 which has more extensively utilized the PU leather to the usage at garment, household, transportation, and entertainment, etc. In fact, the development of PU leather industry in Taiwan has been undertaking for more than 30 years.
PU leather industry is highly related to the petrochemistry industry, its product is so called the material for the downstream to carry out for the consumer’s usage. It is also inseparable between the industry of synthetic leather and shoe manufacturing. Moreover, during the 1990s, Taiwan has achieved the industry of synthetic leather world’s No. 1 in terms of production volume. Therefore, from the time, Taiwan has wined the name as “Kingdom of Shoes” or “Kingdom of Synthetic Leather”.
The low entry level of PU leather industry with its high product substitution has inevitably caused high competition in current market. Moreover, in the past 10 years, the mainland China and Southeast Asia with its technic transplanted from Taiwan has also became the major provider in the world of PU product with more competitive cost. As a result, the next move for PU industry in Taiwan has came into an agenda which focus on the innovation of manufacturing and product itself in order to enhance the competitive strength from the market selection.
In Taiwan, due to the recession of PU industry, more and more manufacturers have been enforced to remove overseas for cost down or backward for more value addition. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is trying to probe into the research by case study (as at PONY Leather Corp) of Taiwan’s PU industry. From the past, it studies the possible future through the strategies of brand-name, marketing passage, and consumer approach, etc.
Key Words: Synthetic Leather, Competition Strategy, Brand, Pony Leather.
