Technology & Process: AVITERA® SE

The AVITERA® SE is a revolutionary textile dyeing product for use on cellulosic fibres that saves 50% or more water and energy and reduces C0₂ emissions by 50% or more during the dyeing and washing off processes. This technology also helps to reduce processing time by 25% or more without any capital investment due to:

Fixation: A very high fixation rate, thanks to the newly developed reactive groups. Using AVITERA® SE <5% of unfixed dye is removed during the subsequent wash off stage as opposed to 15-30% with conventional dyes.

Washing Off: Less wash off is needed with less wash baths, lower temperature and less time required to reach the desired level of colourfastness.
