The ZDHC has approved Fibre52 cotton technology, demonstrating that it uses only environmentally friendly processes. This innovation allows cotton textiles to be produced without the use of hazardous chemicals, reducing the negative effects on the natural environment.
According to the official website of Fibre52, from prep to dye, the Fibre52 process is holistic, and mill testing throughout the world indicates that it is reliably reproducible. Cotton coloured with Fibre52 is inherently hydrophobic and repels water, but it is also adaptable enough to be hydrophilic if required.
Traditional cotton preparation techniques, as reported by Fibre52, commonly require the use of toxic chemicals and high heat, both of which damage the cotton fibres. However, the business claims that by switching to bio-active materials and reducing the amount of heat used in the pre-treatment phase of the preparation for dye (PFD) and dye process, it can save as much as 70% of water and 40% of energy.
ZDHC has given the go-ahead for Fibre52 cotton technology, which has the potential to completely transform the textile industry. This technology offers a different strategy, one that puts sustainability and environmental consciousness first. Manufacturers may satisfy customer demand for more eco-friendly and secure textiles by implementing Fibre52 cotton technology.
What sets Fibre52 cotton technology apart from its competitors is its sustainability, quality, performance, and innovation.
