Save water: why we print our patterns
Textile dyeing is one of the most water-hungry and polluting stages of making fabric. Conventional dyeing uses large amounts of water and chemical dyes and leaves behind wastewater that has to be treated.
Printed, not dyed in a bath
OneSevenNine° patterns are made with digital printing. Compared with traditional dyeing it uses far less water, and almost no ink goes to waste, which keeps both resource use and pollution to a minimum.
Slower, and worth it
Digital printing takes longer and costs more than the traditional way. We think it is the right trade: crisp, detailed patterns made with less water and less waste.
