Dyeing fibre blends

Tintoria Emiliana is one of the few enterprises able to dye garments made from different fibres, even coated or coupled ones, in a controlled and reproducible way.
The double dyeing processes can be carried out by either dyeing all the fibres the same shade or by differentiating the colour for each fibre.

The main combinations with which Tintoria Emiliana has developed specific technical skills are cotton (or any other cellulosic fibre) with nylon, polyester, wool, elitè, silk, or wool with polyester, nylon, elitè and silk.

“SHADY” TREATMENT

The previously dyed garment is “dirtied” by applying colour differently on the surface, depending on its construction.
The contrast between the two shades is highly evident, especially around pockets, seams or other applications.

“DOUBLE OLD” TREATMENT

A particular dichroic “vintage” effect obtained by combining two different shades of colour, one that goes deeper into the fibre and a second, more superficial hue. Can be enhanced by using garments made of blended fabrics and making the most out of the different colouring affinities of the fibres.
