Currently in the textile industry, in particular DENIM’s, to obtain vintage, aged or scratched effects on fabrics or finished clothing, are used mechanical treatments, which involve the use of abrasives of various kinds: pumice, Leca, synthetic poly-composites, minerals , etc. Their use, in rotary or dynamic machines, determines the following drawbacks:

  • Destruction of the abrasives after few treatments, therefore with the production of a lt waste to dispose of;
  • Deterioration of the machinery used;
  • Exclusive use of the machinery for this type only of process;
  • High consumption of of water, energy and chemicals;
  • High number of washes to eliminate various powders and residues;
