DyStar introduces resource efficient Cadira Denim

Cadira helps brands and retailers and their production partners to save valuable resources, to reduce the carbon footprint of their textile goods and to increase productivity by improving the utilisation of machinery.

As the first concept of the Cadira module, Cadira Reactive was launched at Interdye Shanghai in April 2016 followed by Cadira Polyester, Cadira VAT, Cadira Recycled Polyester and Cadira Wool. "The sixth programme is Cadira Denim which combines the most eco awarded Indigo in the world, DyStar Indigo Vat 40 per cent solution with the ecological advanced reducing agent Sera Con C-RDA. This combination allows a salt free dyeing with a strong effluent load reduction," a company press release stated.

Cadira Denim reduces the use of sulfates by up to 95 per cent compared to dyeing with indigo powder in combination with the conventional reducing agent sodium dithionite (hydrosulfite).  Total solids will also be reduced up to 90 per cent compared with indigo powder and hydrosulfite.

The Singapore-based company is also in works to introduce additional concepts for more resource efficiency and productivity in the production of textiles. (RR)
