ECOHUES™ Waterless Dyeing Technology: Lenzing And Cobalt Fashion Partner With Exponent Envirotech

ECOHUES™, an waterless dyeing technology developed by technology start-up Exponent Envirotech, features a recyclable non-aqueous solvent that reduces water usage and dye usage by 95 percent and 40 percent, respectively.1

TW Special Report

Lenzing Group, a global producer of wood-based specialty fibers, has partnered with technology start-up Exponent Envirotech to introduce ECOHUES™, a waterless dyeing technology to wood-based cellulosic fibers. The technology, regarded as a possible alternative to conventional water-based dyeing, can be applicable to cotton and linen yarns. Through collaboration with Lenzing, for the first time, ECOHUES is applied to cellulosic fibers, namely TENCEL™ branded lyocell and modal fibers, as well as LENZING™ branded viscose fibers, which are certified with the EU Ecolabel for environmental excellence2. Joining forces with Hong Kong-based innovative knitwear manufacturer Cobalt Fashion, the dynamic trio is setto bring the scientific breakthrough to the mainstream textile market.

“At Lenzing, we are constantly collaborating with partners to identify innovative solutions that not only ensure product quality but also strive to reduce usage of our planet’s resources. The collaboration with Exponent Envirotech and Cobalt Fashion is a testament to such dedication, as we bring scalable innovations to the textile value chain,” said Rex Mok, director of Technical Marketing and Development, Global Textiles Business, Lenzing. “We are excited to incorporate ECOHUES a revolutionary dyeing technique, to lyocell, modal and viscose fibers for the first time. With the availability of such technology, we are taking a crucial step towards systematically reforming conventional practices within the textile value chain.”

ECOHUES™: an innovative solution that improves resource efficiency and ensures color vibrancy3

For every ton of yarn, 120 tons of water is required in the traditional dyeing process. This usually involves pretreatment, water-based dyeing, washing, and finishing under a chemically intensive environment. ECOHUES technology effectively replaces the use of water in the dyeing process with a non-aqueous solvent that is 99.8 percent reusable and streamlines the pretreatment and finishing processes by nearly removing the need for soap washing after dyeing. This helps to reduce the overall water usage by 95 percent compared to traditional dyeing methods. The simplified process not only lowers water and energy consumption but also boosts cost-effectiveness and production efficiency by significantly reducing the traditional dyeing duration from 12 hours to 6-8 hours.

Additionally, ECOHUES eliminates the use of salt as a common dyeing assistant to address the industry’s long-standing issue of high salinity in textile wastewater. With a 40 percent dyestuff saving, ECOHUES greatly reduces the amount of dye required while ensuring a color fixation rate of over 97 percent which outperforms the average rate of traditional water bath dyeing by more than 30 percent, maintaining a stable color performance of the yarn. Complementing the use of yarns made of TENCEL and LENZING ECOVERO™ fibers which are made with at least 50-percent less carbon emissions and water consumption4 and further reduce the overall energy and chemical usage compared to cotton by skipping the bleaching process with its natural white color, it offers a more responsible choice for customers and brand partners.

“As a company dedicated to sustainable and energy-optimization solutions for the industry, Exponent Envirotech has been a champion of environmental-friendly innovation since day one,” said Wesley Choi, chairman, Exponent Envirotech.

“This project integrates sustainable production practices with responsible materials, forging a new standard for resource-efficient and environmentally friendly fashion production within the industry.”

Power Of Collaboration To Systematically Reform To Conventional Practices Within The Textile Value Chain

While the ECOHUES technology could be applied to almost all segments including innerwear, ready-to-wear, activewear and footwear in which cellulosic fibers are widely used, knitwear has been chosen as the application to bring the results of the collaboration to life. Produced by Cobalt Fashion, the knitwear collection is crafted with yarns made with Lenzing fibers dyed with ECOHUES technology demonstrating how Lenzing’s cellulosic fibers, when combined with the technology, can enhance the performance of knitwear, meeting the demands of consumers who seek both style and sustainability.

“As we strive to lead in sustainable fashion, Cobalt Fashion relentlessly pursues innovative yarns that reduce carbon emissions and water usage while maintaining performance and affordability,” remarked Andrew Dixon, senior vice president, Merchandising, Cobalt Fashion. “Non-water dyeing methods often require less energy when compared to conventional dyeing techniques. This energy efficiency can lead to cost savings for textile manufacturers and contribute to a more sustainable industry. This partnership is an important first step as we join hands to create far-reaching impact and bring systematic change across the textile industry.”

Swers was named president of Glen Raven Material Solutions Group (formerly Custom Fabrics) in 2013 and was also a driving force and executive sponsor for the creation of the new Glen Raven Consumer Solutions Group, part of the company’s move closer to the consumer.

“Throughout his career, Dave has led with integrity and a vision for the future,” Oehmig said. “I will miss his wise counsel and am grateful that he dedicated more than three decades of his career to Glen Raven. I also appreciate Dave’s willingness to have worked alongside Joey to ensure a seamless transition prior to beginning his much-deserved retirement.”

COLOMBO, Sri Lanka & LOS ANGELES — June 5, 2024 — MAS Holdings, a global apparel manufacturing and tech conglomerate headquartered in Sri Lanka, has joined forces with Los Angeles-based materials science company Ambercycle to scale up textile-to-textile regeneration in the apparel industry. The partnership, which centers around a three-year offtake agreement, reflects demand among large brands and manufacturers for new streams of high-quality next-gen materials made from textile-to-textile regeneration, as well as MAS and Ambercycle’s commitment to working towards a sustainable future for the apparel industry.

MAS Holdings and Ambercycle team came together to commemorate their 3-year offtake partnership (From left to right: Nipuna Gunaratne – Sustainable Product Lead, MAS Holdings; Nemanthie Kooragamage – Director, Group Sustainable Business, MAS Holdings; Suren Fernando – Chief Executive Officer, MAS Holdings, Shay Sethi, CEO & Co-founder, Ambercycle; and Moby Ahmed, CTO & Co-founder, Ambercycle)

The agreement allows MAS to reserve capacity to utilize Ambercycle’s circular polyester material cycora® for their customer partners and enables Ambercycle to expedite efforts to reach commercial-scale production as quickly as possible. The partnership also supports MAS’s ambitious sustainability strategy, the Plan for Change, featuring twelve measurable commitments under the pillars of Product, Lives, and Planet, that the manufacturer aims to make a reality by 2025. The offtake agreement with Ambercycle will support one of the plan’s key objectives to derive 50 percent of MAS’ revenue from sustainable products by 2025.

“We’re committed to revolutionizing apparel product creation and manufacturing, and this collaboration is an important milestone for the industry to achieve circularity at scale,” said MAS Holdings Director of Group Sustainable Business, Nemanthie Kooragamage. “Together with Ambercycle, MAS is enabling better access to regenerated next-gen material for our customer partners. This allows brands to meet the growing demand from consumers for sustainable apparel, while creating a positive environmental impact. The partnership is an example of how manufacturers are a missing link in the adoption of material solutions, and we are excited to have opportunity to offer Ambercycle’s technology up for brand adoption. ”

MAS Holdings is the first apparel manufacturer to establish an offtake with Ambercycle in its efforts to commercialize circular polyester with speed, scale, quality, and performance, providing a sustainable solution to reduce the amount of virgin polyester that enters the apparel supply chain. This partnership supports Ambercycle’s efforts in Asia, close to the value chain.

“Supply-chain partners play a crucial role in advancing our work to decarbonize fashion and minimize the impact of raw-material extraction on our environment,” added Shay Sethi, Ambercycle co-founder and CEO. “We’re pleased to share our work with MAS as one of the premier manufacturing partners in the global apparel ecosystem. Together we share a strong commitment to diverting textiles from landfills and pioneering circularity at scale.”

Ambercycle’s circular polyester material, cycora®, is made through proprietary molecular regeneration technology and yields the same quality as virgin-grade materials, while lowering greenhouse gas emissions and reducing dependency on landfilling or incinerating end-of-life textiles.

In line with its commitment to sustainability, Ambercycle plans to establish a state-of-the-art textile regeneration facility by the end of 2025, facilitating increased production of cycora and accelerating the transition to circularity in the apparel industry.

Carrington Textiles’ Portuguese Factory Cuts Carbon Dioxide Emissions By 45 Percent With Biomass Boiler Installation

ADLINGTON, England  — June 5, 2024 — Global workwear textile manufacturer Carrington Textiles, along with its joint venture in Portugal, MGC, has achieved significant carbon emission reductions following the installation of a biomass boiler at the site in 2023. This initiative has allowed the factory to produce 95 percent of the steam needed for manufacturing while reducing natural gas consumption by 70 percent, marking a substantial step towards more sustainable textile production practices.

MGC Biomass Boiler

A biomass boiler is a device that uses organic materials, such as wood chips, agricultural residues, or other biological matter, to produce heat and energy. This technology serves as an alternative to fossil fuels, significantly cutting down on greenhouse gas emissions.

MGC’s biomass boiler uses responsibly sourced wood chips from local forests within a 50 km radius of the factory, all certified by SURE (Sustainable Resources). This raw material consists of leftover wood intended for the paper industry that needs to be removed to prevent fires. The ash generated in the process is used as soil fertilizer after being treated to avoid soil contamination.

This new equipment is carbon neutral and has allowed the textile manufacturer to decrease its overall CO2 emissions by 45 percent compared to 2022.

Jose Melo, MGC’s managing director, commented on the achievement: “The installation of the biomass boiler marks a significant milestone in our journey towards driving energy efficiency in our manufacturing processes. The substantial reduction in our CO2 emissions is a testament to our commitment to environmental stewardship.”

Comprehensive Environmental Initiatives

Beyond the biomass boiler, MGC has implemented a series of initiatives that showcase its commitment to sustainability. This includes reduction in water consumption by over 13 percent, waste and plastic usage reduction, environmental management training to all employees, energy management systems, wastewater treatment to remove microplastics and PFAs, to name a few.

These initiatives and the implementation of the biomass boiler illustrate Carrington Textiles and MGC’s dedication to investing in technologies that reduce their impact on the environment.
