Abstract: The challenges around the fastness of natural dyes for textiles Victor Durand from Ever Dye sheds light on the challenges surrounding the fastness of natural textile dyes. Dive into his insights, and learn why this issue is crucial for the future of the textile industry. For thousands of years, humans have relied on natural dyes to colour textiles. Archaeological evidence shows that as early as 2000 BCE, civilisations in Egypt, the Indus Valley, and China were extracting pigments from plants, minerals, and insects. Madder roots yielded deep reds, indigo leaves gave blues, and saffron or turmeric produced vibrant yellows.
