WHAT IS SOLUTION DYE?
Colour is thirsty. It takes 3 gallons water to dye each yard of fabric in the world. But when using the Solution Dye technique, not one single drop of water is used when colouring fabrics.
In brief, the Solution Dye technique means reducing water and chemicals used when dyeing fabrics. This process involves mixing the pigment in with the raw or recycled polyester chips, before they are even extruded into filaments. By dyeing the fibres without water, there will also be a reduced chemical waste.
