New dyeing technology has an even lower impact
13/07/2011
It said at the time that its new Low Impact dyeing technology used 22% less electricity for heating and cooling, 20% less water for dye presentation and waste water treatment and 15% fewer dyestuffs, while achieving the same results as conventional dyeing methods.
Kingwhale has now announced that some of these figures fall short of painting a full picture. In a new statement, it has confirmed that its Low Impact dyeing technology uses 15% fewer dyestuffs and 22% less electricity for heating and cooling. However, further trials of the technology have revealed that it uses 60% less water for dye presentation and waste water treatment and, in addition, 50% less thermal energy to create steam.
