Tips
Since colours can vary depending on your device’s monitor settings, we recommend buying our
Colour Chart so that you can check the colours with you own eyes before proceeding with the final order. Do you want to check the quality of the material? Buy our
Sample Box.
ATTENTION: all our colours tend to have a high fastness against light and washing. However, dark and bright colors can lose a lot of their color when exposed to alkaline or harsh soaps and during prolonged processing or washing. Thus, for any materials dyed with these types of colours we recommend that you carry out a processing and washing test using a small sample before you proceed working on your final project. The above mentioned testing is positively essential if these materials are to be combined with raw or light coloured materials. It is also good practice to never dry the materials in direct sunlight, instead be sure to use low lighting.
