CleanKore’s patented technology modifies the denim dye range to eliminate Potassium Permanganate spray, lower the carbon footprint & improve sustainability throughout the supply chain without increasing cost.

Gaiacel has developed a novel dyeing innovation to make industrial rope and slasher dyeing processes sustainable and cost-effective. Their patented nanocellulose hydrogel along with dye particles sticks to textile surfaces and eliminates the need for multiple dipping, indigo reduction and additional chemicals, making the process less water and energy intensive compared to conventional indigo dyeing. 

Satma CE is a web based software that uses blockchain optionally to offer traceability across the waste-to-worth supply chain, including collection, segregation, recycling and processing. 

HempTex India is an agro-based enterprise which assists farmers in cultivating hemp by providing optimum seeds, best practices and by training, educating and empowering local farmers, elevates the socio-economic conditions.

AnamXR builds virtual immersive B2B sell in and DTC gamified retail experiences that improve inclusivity and amplify sustainability narratives whilst having significant environmental impacts such as reduced sampling, (air) travel, retail stores and returns. Founded in 2020 (US).

Stony Creek Colors creates a plant-based indigo that can replace petrochemical based synthetic indigo dyes. They optimise indigo production in a (non-GMO) closed loop process which has the potential to be carbon negative. Founded in 2012 (US).

Ever Dye has developed a novel dyeing process with biobased pigments including a proprietary pretreatment, that allows for dyeing at room temperature on cellulosic yarn and fabric. The process utilises less energy than conventional dyeing and no use of petro-chemicals, and is also faster than traditional methods.

Vaayu is the world’s first automated carbon-tracking software for retailers, enabling businesses to reduce their footprint by providing accessible, real-time data to drive carbon-reduction at scale. By integrating with point-of-sale systems, such as Shopify, and leveraging proprietary AI and machine learning technology, Vaayu draws insights from production, sales and logistics to deliver a tangible solution in the fight against climate change and a more sustainable future for retail. 

Fibre52 has developed a patented process for preparing and dyeing cotton and other cellulosic materials, applicable to fibres, yarn, fabric (knit and woven), and garments. This innovative technique shortens the process by over an hour compared to conventional methods and requires lower temperatures for fabric preparation. Additionally, by removing caustic soda and acid, the fibre isn’t degraded, thus retaining its natural strength and softness properties.

Samsara Eco is a chemical recycler capable of recycling PET and PA66 waste streams, with the ability to handle elastane, various types of dyes, and both pre and post-concumer waste. 

Matereal is developing proprietary technology for the production of fully renewable non-isocyanate polyurethanes (NIPUs) for use in foams, coatings, and adhesives with footwear, fabrics and outdoor gear chosen as the initial target markets. Matereal uses oil from microalgae or other non-food sources, which give NIPUS with smaller carbon footprints when compared to materia made with isocyanates. 

Traceless creates bio-based films and coats that are home compostable, do not compete with food production and are qualitatively a real alternative to conventional plastic – 100% biodegradable and compostable.
