German term
Thunit
German to English
Tech/Engineering
Materials (Plastics, Ceramics, etc.)
Synthetic shoe-making material
I believe that this is a brand name but it doesn't come up on many UK websites and where it appears it seems to originate from foreign language sites. Maybe this is due to the lack of shoe manufacturing in the UK or maybe it is in fact a term not used in the UK industry. can anyone help? The only context I have is this:
bei dem Material "Thunit" handelt es sich um ein synthetisches Material, welches fast wie Leder aussieht und winterfest, rutschhemmend und Wasser unempfindlich ist. Es wird häufig bei Pumps und Absätzen eingesetzt

There's a glossary in Proz with a different language pair (Ita-Rus).
Maybe this link might help:

vernici per thunit means varnish, paint, enamel or leather goods coated with enamel
lastre in thunit means board made of thunit
I hope this helps.

Alternately, soles can be realized with any kind of synthetic material (rubber, thunit, microlite, microporose etc.)
apparently used in a Toscany shoe factory..maybe that's where we have to go?
