Ep 30: Interview with Graham Stewart, Founder and EVP of Fibre52, on textile dying
Saturday, 3 August, 2024

Dying cotton is extremely water intensive. In this episode we interview Graham Stewart, Founder and EVP of Fibre52 about his long history in the textile industry and his passion to make it more sustainable. He takes us through the complete process of dying clothes and tells us about the different types of dyes and colorants used to color fabrics. Graham started Fibre 52, a company that uses special dying technology to reduce time, energy and water usage of typical cotton dying processes in textile mills.
