Vat Dyes
Excellent light, wash, and rub-fastness properties
What Are Vat Dyes ?
A premium choice for dyeing cellulose fibers like cotton, linen, and rayon. With their exceptional colorfastness and resistance to fading, vat dyes are ideal for creating long-lasting, vibrant textiles that stand the test of time. Vat dyes are unique in their application process, which involves a reduction and oxidation cycle. This allows the dye to penetrate the fabric fibers deeply and form strong bonds, resulting in superior color durability and washfastness. Vat dyes are often used for outdoor fabrics, workwear, and items requiring exceptional color stability.
Available in a wide range of colors, from intense indigo blues to earthy greens and rich browns. Applying vat dyes requires a few extra steps compared to other dye types, but the results are well worth the effort. Begin by reducing the vat dye to its water-soluble form, then immerse your pre-washed fabric in the dye bath. After the dye has been absorbed, expose the fabric to air to oxidize the dye, which will lock in the vibrant, long-lasting color.
