Step:
Colouration
Application:
Raw Materials:
Polyester
Blends
Construction:
Knit
Woven
Yarn
Replacements for:
Standard lasher sulphur dyeing
RotaSpray system enables precise, contactless dye and chemical application. It replaces traditional immersion-based methods (e.g. padding) with a more efficient and targeted approach. This reduces liquor contamination, improves flexibility in colour application, and eliminates unnecessary intermediate drying steps.
Substrates Tested:
Raw Materials:
Benchmarks:
Commercial rope dyeing
Location: India
Scope:
Dyeing
Key Findings:
Performance: The rubbing fastness in the yarn dyeing stage meets the quality parameter applicable to the standard denim slasher dyed yarns. Rotaspray dyeing process offers superior colour consistency, with all samples well within acceptable tolerance.
Countries: 7
Implementations: 10
Step:
Finishing
Application:
All fibres and constructions
Replacements for:
Conventional pad finishing process
Weko® spray finishing is a non-contact, high-precision application system that uses rotating discs to create ultrafine droplets for uniform and reproducible chemical application on fabrics. Its modular design enables flexible single- or double-sided treatments while reducing water, chemical, and energy use. The system ensures consistent quality, prevents contamination, and supports high-speed, efficient textile finishing.
Substrates Tested:
Raw Materials:
Benchmarks:
Standard stenter padding process
Location: GM Syntex, India
Scope:
Finishing
Key Findings:
Performance: The water repellency durability of samples finished with the Weko® spray system was compared to conventionally finished samples. Weko®-finished samples showed a marginally smaller performance drop (after the 20th and 40th wash), well within the ±5% tolerance of the performance matrix.

Sustendye® encapsulated dyeing technology.
Step:
Colouration
Application:
Cellulosics such as cotton and their blends
Replacements for:
Conventional dyeing with reactive dyes
Sustendye is a molecular encapsulation process that enables dyes to deliver chemical components directly to targeted areas of the textile fibre. This protects the dye molecules during the exhaustion stage, increases fixation, and helps prevent premature hydrolysis or degradation in the dye bath.
Substrates Tested:
Raw Materials:
Constructions:
Knit
Benchmarks:
Location: Honduras
Scope:
Dyeing
Key Findings:

Countries: 4
Fully in production in 4 facilities
The availability of the technology is currently limited by the market reach of Rethink’s business coverage areas, although the company is in the process of expanding its market presence.

SupraUno: Batch Solvent-based dyeing machinery using sCO2
Step:
Colouration
Application:
Raw Materials:
Polyester
Blends
Construction:
Knit
Woven
Replacements for:
Exhaust dyeing systems
PDPS dyeing systems
Deven’s patented technology, Suprauno, uses supercritical CO2 as a substrate for dyeing. ScCO2 at a correct pressure and adopts both liquid and gas properties so dye can solubilise in CO2 but then stay in the fabric when CO2 returns to its gas state. ScCO2 flows through a dyeing vessel that has pre-coated fabric and at about 200-300 bar pressure, >35 deg Celsius, the dye diffuses in the textile.
Substrates Tested:
Raw Materials:
Polyester
Constructions:
Woven
Benchmarks:
PDPS dyeing for cotton and polyester (volume tested: 20,000 kg)
Location: India
Scope:
retreatment
Dyeing (Including Soaping & Drying)
Key Findings:
Performance: Excellent quality, comparable to conventional. Good reproducibility demonstrated at lab scale.
Countries: 1
Implementations: 1 demo scale, 1 industrial (under implementation)

Fashion for Good launched D(R)YE Factory of the Future in January 2022 in collaboration with brand partners Kering, adidas, PVH Corp. and manufacturing partners Arvind Limited and Welspun India with the aim of validating the most promising technology combinations in pretreatment and colouration processing steps to support the widespread adoption of mostly waterless innovations within the textile industry.
The apparel industry faces immense pressure to meet the 1.5°C target set by the Paris Agreement, with fashion accounting for 2-8% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Scope 3 emissions, especially from processing (Tier 2), represent a critical challenge. Shifting to dry processing technologies has the potential to reduce water and energy use, contributing to lower emissions and a smaller environmental footprint.
The D(R)YE Factory of the Future project brought together key industry leaders and innovators committed to revolutionizing textile processing. The project’s brand stakeholders included:
