ECO-FINISHING
Nano-cellulose finishing and coating
By combining two of the most abundant materials on earth, cellulose and chitosan...
Our finishing process is able to decrease water consumption and chemical usage by using natural ingredients that latch onto fabrics more efficiently than traditional finishing processes.
Cellulose is the most abundant, renewable, biodegradable, and environmentally friendly organic material found in nature.
Due to their nano-dimension, the specific surface area of nano-cellulose fibers allows for a larger loading capability, particularly for the dye and functional molecules.
The desired shade is created by blending the natural or synthetic dye with the nano-cellulose.
Our process breaks down the cellulose particles to the nano level.
NANO-CELLULOSE
CHITOSAN
Chitosan is a material that comes from the shells of shellfish.
This means that the dye is much less likely to bleed in the wash and that the desired color for jeans can be obtained effortlessly.
THE RESULT
Natural
Textile finishing & coating that checks every box
Chemical-Free
Biodegradable
Reduced Water Consumption
Our nano-cellulose dye can also be applied to fabric through screen printing techniques.
