DyStar and DyeCoo aim to bolster waterless dye technology

12/05/2015
Singapore-based DyStar Group has joined forces with DyeCoo Textile Systems, using its breakthrough technology of substituting carbon dioxide (CO2) for water in the dyeing process.

DyeCoo is the world's first supplier of industrial CO2 dyeing equipment, which uses the recycled gas instead of water to permeate textiles with dyes. It has been adopted by Nike and Adidas suppliers FENC and Yeh Group (see WSA article ‘Waterless in the works', available to download from the technical library using the keyword ‘waterless').

Mats Blacker, CEO of DyeCoo, said: “We are very pleased with DyStar’s dedication to support our water and chemical free dyeing technology. Collaborations like this are key to further help our ground-breaking technology towards global implementation.”
