Denim companies adopt sustainable methods

Companies throughout the denim supply chain are developing techniques and fabrics designed to streamline traditional processes in new sustainable ways.

Garmon’s Smart Foam can be used to create a broad sweep of designs, from traditional finishes to unique fashion concepts. Water is replaced with a special foam. Smart Foam allows savings of up to 80 per cent of water compared to traditional washing processes. Additionally, the treatments are performed at room temperature, therefore reducing the energy required. Tonello’s OBleach is a new process that achieves a true bleach effect with minimal environmental impact. The process requires low temperatures to achieve contrasting effects. It is also highly replicable, allowing brands to follow a fixed recipe.

Naveena is exploring ways to roll out laser-friendly fabrics across its entire collection. The mill has introduced Beam Denim, a range of fabrics that easily chip off to achieve natural shade, abrasion and marking effects. This innovation reduces finishing time and saves energy and water without harsh chemicals. Artistic Fabric Garment Industries’ solution for laser-friendly fabrics is M-Power fabrics, a collection of denim fabrics that is designed to empower the use of lasers. The fabrics are made with 100 per cent cellulose fibers to avoid heat damage and melting under the light.
