Clariant unveiled Pad/Sizing-Ox, a new eco-efficient dyeing procedure at the Munichfabricstart 2010 bluezone on August 31-September 2.
The new dyeing procedure maintains the creative effects, colors and shades of Advanced Denim in a one-step sizing and dyeing process that delivers a massive reduction in water consumption, according to the company.
Up to 92% less water is used by textile mills, creating practically no waste water. Pad/Sizing Ox allows 30% energy savings together with 63% waste cotton savings compared to conventional dyeing procedures.
Advanced Denim allows eco-bleaching wash-down with ozone and peroxide avoiding the use and consequently the presence in waste water of harmful chemicals like hypochlorite or permanganate.
The Pad/Sizing Ox process is based on Clariant's recently patented Arkofil DEN-FIX sizing agent innovation. In combination with its full range of Diresul RDT sulfur dyes, including Clariant's cutting-edge non-indigo based Diresul Indicolors RDT dyes, Advanced Denim offers improved fastness, better reproduction of tones and shades, and easy application for more precise results, the company says.
