It worked with denim research prototyping company Itaclab and engineering group Mactec to create Smart Foam, a patented technology that can be used with any industrial washing machine to create finishes for denim.
The companies claim that compared with traditional washing processes, the application of chemicals through smart foam allows savings of up to 80% of water. All the treatments are performed at room temperature, reducing the energy required.
“Compared with nebulization systems, smart foam is up to three times faster to load chemicals in the washing machine, and it doesn’t require a sealed equipment, allowing technicians to interrupt finishing treatments and check garments with safety and ease,” said the companies.
