A modern dye
house is not operable without support from laboratory work. The laboratory’s
tasks are among others:
-Working out
formulations for new shades, supported by colorimetry and computer color
matching.
-Production
tests on the textile material to be dyed; fastness testing.
-Maintaining consistency
of production adjudicating claims.
-Establishing
tolerance ranges.
-Dye selection
in view of compatibility, fastness properties, dyeing rate, time requirements
and cost.
-Development of
appropriate dyeing techniques, suitable for new types of textiles and novel
styling requirements.
Laboratory
equipment permits dyeing of small (5g) to larger (1Kg) textile samples. Most
lab dyeing machines work batch wise, but installations for continuous operation
are also available.
