What are azo-free dyes?
Azo-free dyes are dyes that do not contain azo compounds, which are a class of synthetic dyes that can potentially release harmful aromatic amines. These aromatic amines have been linked to various health risks, including carcinogenicity and other adverse effects on human health.
Azo-free dyes are considered safer alternatives to conventional azo dyes and are commonly used in the textile industry to reduce the potential health and environmental impacts associated with dyeing processes. They are produced using different chemical structures that do not break down into aromatic amines.
By using azo-free dyes, we aim to ensure that our designs are free from hazardous substances and comply with stricter regulations and certifications related to textile safety and environmental standards. This helps to minimise potential risks to consumers, workers, and the environment.
