Recycrom – Sustainable dyeing solution using 100% recycled clothing

Evaluated alternative
What is an alternative/evaluated alternative?

Summary
Recycrom is a revolutionary sustainable dyeing solution made of 100% recycled clothing, fibrous material and textile scraps. By a sophisticated process, Officina +39 has developed a system to reprocess the scraps and transform textile fiber into colored powder. In contrast to other dyes, Recycromis applied as a suspension and not as part of a chemical solution – cutting environmental impact.

Description
Recycrom creates a full range of pigment powders from used clothing and manufacturing waste. The fabric fibers are crystalized into an incredibly fine powder that can be used as a pigment dye for fabrics and garments made of cotton, wool, nylon or any natural fiber and blend. Recycrom can be applied using various methods: exhaustion dyeing, dipping, spray, screen printing and coating. Brands can collaborate with Officina+39 to make custom dyes from their own scraps and textile waste.
Key Features:
• Using better chemicals.
• Environmentally friendly.
• Suitable for cotton, wool and nylon.
• Full range of pigment powder in various colors.

Practical implementation
OVS, an Italian retailer, already produced a collection of more than 10K garments for their stores and a new production is running for next season. G-STAR Raw is producing 20K garments using Recycrom for the next season.

Possible replacement to
Pigment and conventional synthetic dyestuffs for textile industry and garments dyeing

Recycrom creates a full range of pigment powders using textile fibers from used clothing and manufacturing waste.

Through a sophisticated production process, fabric textile waste fibers are transformed into an incredibly fine powder that can be used as a pigment dye for fabrics and garments made of cotton, wool, nylon or any natural fiber and blend. Recycrom can be applied using various methods: exhaustion dyeing, dipping, spray, screen printing and coating.

In contrast to other dyes, Recycrom is applied as a suspension and not as part of a chemical solution. It’s therefore easily filtered from the water – cutting both costs and environmental impact.

Since Recycrom uses 100% recycled materials, slight colour variation can occur with larger productions. However if required, these inconsistencies can be adjusted by using less than 1% of a traditional dye.

Brands can collaborate with Officina+39 to make custom dyes from their own scraps and textile waste.

Backed by winning the Hightex Award at Munich Fabric Start for Autumn/Winter 17/18, Recycrom may prove to be the biggest dyestuff innovation of the last 50 years
