Eco-Pigment Dyes
The Renaissance of contemporary textile dying - cellulose fiber-reactive eco-pigments.
Low-Impact
Dyeing is an area where take extreme sustainable measures and are strongly committed to using only OEKO-TEX100 certified cellulose fiber-reactive eco-pigments, provided by our trusted UK supplier.
These pigments are fine powders, that have the ability to attach to the fibers using a covalent (electron-sharing) bond resulting a 'permanent stain' - colour. These dyes are here to work with us, not against us.
Positively impacting you:
- Hypoallergenic
- Skin friendly
- Toxin, heavy metal and mordant-free
Positively impacting them:
- vegan
- less water used during production
- reduced carbon footprint (cold wash process uses less electricity)
Process
We dye every piece in-house at our Nottingham-based studio in Morley Mills. This way, we maintain full control over the quantity and quality of the final color. Our dedicated machines use a cold wash, low-water cycle for the dyeing process—similar to laundering, but with dye stuff. Each wash is finished with a softener rinse (we use Ecover UK), then hang dried and ready for cutting.
As you can see, this process is a friendly approach to sustainable bulk dyeing.
