Ethical Printing & Dyeing Matrix

We're delighted to present this ethical printing and dyeing matrix to help your printed and dyed creations come to life, with minimal impact on the planet and the people involved in all stages of the process.

The apparel industry alone accounts for 6.7% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions, with more than 50% attributed to three phases: 15% to fibre production, 28% to yarn preparation, and the highest, a staggering 36% associated to dyeing, printing and finishing. Like any industrial process, textile printing requires raw materials, consumes energy and produces waste.
