Sonovia
Sonovia’s technology embeds the necessary compounds for finishing applications directly into the fabric using a process called cavitation, which does not require binder chemicals normally used to attach finishes onto a fabric. This protects the end-user and the environment from the leaching of hazardous chemicals.

Why Fashion for Good is working with Sonovia?
The processing stage can be lengthy, technically complex and consumes a huge amount of water, chemistry and energy, so optimising and finding new innovations is crucially important. Sonovia’s innovative technology uses ultrasonic cavitation to embed customized chemistries directly into fabrics, reducing the chemicals needed to create the desired effect and reduces the amount of CO2 emissions from processing.
