Alchemie Technology Ltd
Our mission is to transform the textile industry with clean-tech digital manufacturing solutions that eliminate the environmental impact of textile dyeing and finishing.
The textile industry is one of the biggest polluters on the planet, generating 3% of global CO2 emissions, and the second largest cause of industrial global wastewater pollution. Alchemie’s mission is to ignite change to eliminate the environmental impact of these polluting processes. At current consumption growth rates, textile dyeing could be responsible for 10% of global CO2 emissions by 2050.
To address this urgent issue Alchemie Technology, based in Cambridge, UK, developed breakthrough digital dyeing and finishing technologies that deliver a dramatic reduction in energy consumption and eliminate contaminated waste water emissions. Alchemie’s breakthrough proprietary technology, developed to be the best-in-class digital liquid application solution combines a large droplet size and high droplet velocity to deliver unrivalled penetration and precision into the textile fabric.
The key benefits of our digital approach to textile dyeing and finishing are:
- Reduction of energy consumption by > 85%
- Elimination of waste water by > 95%
- Significant cost reductions of > 50%
- Digital manufacturing agility to address the ~25% materials waste in the supply chain
