MicroHues

microbe-derived dyes for sustainable textile dyeing

The textile industry is one of the largest polluters of water globally, and synthetic dyes used in textile coloring have a significant ecological and human impact.

Microbes produce several pigments in a wide variety of shades. These pigments can be harnessed to produce eco-compatible dyes. 

MicroHues are sustainable microbe-derived dyes produced through the fermentation of microorganisms. The dyes are biodegradable and non-toxic and can replace hazardous, synthetic dyes in common use.
