It said in the build-up to the show that it will be “keeping nature top-of-mind” at the event.
Solutions on show will include high-fast dyes such as Foron S-WF, Nylosan S, Printofix TF, Drimaren HF, and the new-in-range Foron S luminous dyes. There will also be nature-inspired biomass-waste based dyes, supported by Archroma’s Color Atlas colour management service and part of its EarthColors range.
Visitors to the Archroma booth will also be able to discover the new fabric collection created by Flocus and coloured with Archroma’s EarthColors. Flocus is a Chinese company producing yarns, fillings and fabrics made from kapok fibers, for which it received the 2016 OutDoor Industry award in the sustainable innovation category.
Archroma’s head of marketing for brand and performance textile specialties, Nuria Estape, will speak at the OutDoor conferences programme, giving a presentation about EarthColors on June 19. She said in advance of the event: “We are 100% committed to a more sustainable textile industry and this will be evident through the innovations and solutions we’ll present on our Friedrichshafen debut.”
