The Sustainability of Waterless Dyeing

  • Author(s) / Creator(s)
  • In January 2015, the World Economic Forum announced that the water crisis is the number one global risk, according to its impact to society. It is said that future wars will be fought over this precious and diminishing resource. Accordingly,
    any effort to conserve water or to prevent its contamination should be considered valuable. It follows that the textile industry should embrace new methods of fabric dyeing that use minimal or no water at all. This is particularly true given that
    the textile industry is currently the world’s second largest polluter of clean drinking water.
