View DetailsPRETREATMENT
Pre-treatments are being carried out to prepare textile materials for subsequent processes such as dyeing, printing, chemical finishes, etc. Since textile materials have several end uses, the different types of pre-treatments are given to make them suitable for them. Mainly, the removal of impurities takes place during the pre-treatment process.
A bleach is given to impart good purity to textiles, thus achieving a brilliance of white and coloration since most of the natural fibers are dull in nature. High and uniform absorptivity is essential, especially with synthetic blends. These properties govern the evenness of dyes & chemical uptake. Solubilizing & washing out of impurities is carried out to prepare textile materials for the following processes in the chain.
We offer specialty auxiliaries that are suitable for conventional methods and modern technology using satisfied chemistry that is environmentally friendly and meets most apparel buyers’ standards.

DYEING
During the process of dyeing, dyes/pigments and dye bath auxiliaries are applied to textile materials such as yarn and fabrics to obtain the desired color effects and colorfastness. Dye molecules are anchored to the fiber/filament by absorption, diffusion, and fixing, with pH, temperature, time and other parameters being the controlling factors. The type of dye used will define the strength of the bond between the dye molecules and fiber. Our solutions improve the resource efficiency of your dyeing process and guarantee long-lasting effects for the desired levelness, repeatability, and fastness.
We offer a full portfolio of dyeing auxiliaries for textile materials of various substrates and their blends.
FINISHING
In the textile process, finishing consists of the application of specific, specialty compounds to improve the physical/chemical properties such as aesthetic appeal/performance. After the textile materials undergo pre-treatments, dyeing, or printing, the finishing process is done to enhance their functional characteristics and increase the sales appeal. This stage not only increases the comfort and usefulness of the finished material but also innovative finishes are applied based on changing consumer trends.
We can offer any tailor-made products to meet your diversified needs of finishes; we have a wide range of finishing products applicable for various fibers and multiple application processes.
