Alchemie Technology x Acatel
Alchemie Technology has formed a strategic partnership with Acatel to speed up the industrial use of next-generation dyeing solutions for knitted cellulosic fabrics. The collaboration combines digital technology with manufacturing expertise as the textile industry faces increasing pressure to reduce emissions, water consumption and chemical use.
The partnership will include a 12-month research and development programme based at the Acatel Innovation Hub. The focus is on testing and validating Alchemie’s fully electric jet precision dyeing technology for large-scale production. The system aims to replace traditional dyeing and finishing methods while improving fabric quality, consistency and efficiency across materials such as cotton, linen, MMCFs, hemp and wool blends.
Alchemie states that its digital dyeing platform can reduce energy use and carbon emissions by up to 85 percent, cut water usage by up to 95 percent and lower chemical consumption by as much as 30 percent compared to conventional methods. These results position the technology as a practical solution for low-carbon textile production.
