Onsite Dyeing
At The Colours of Nature we can dye fibre, yarn, thread, fabrics and garments. Our specialisation is natural indigo fermentation dyeing, using indigo extract from the leaves of the plant Indigofera tinctoria, but we have also mastered many other processes. For red we use use Rubia cordifolia, a.k.a. Indian madder, for yellow and green hues the leaves and the nut‐like fruit of the Terminalia chebula tree, and so on. All of our dyeing takes place onsite, as does some of the cultivation and processing of plants. Source materials come from not too far and always from trusted suppliers. So rest assured that we are truly eco‐friendly. (More…)
dsc05907From Seed to Seam
Not only can we dye and deliver fibre, yarn, thread, or fabric, but we can manage the entire value chain for you. We can deliver fabrics (knits or woven) or entire garments. We can add embroidery or other to meet your needs. Long having produced garments and interior products such as t‐shirts, shirts, tops, kimonos, denim or corduroy fabric, jeans or scarves, bags, and so on, whatever your brand, we can give you the edge. To start the conversation, see the relevant catalogues and send us an e‐mail. We’ll take it from there, talking palette, shipping options and everything else. (More…)
