How to Dye Fabrics Using the Washing Machine

Creating colorful textiles is as easy as running a load of laundry.

Dyes can be used to imbue fabrics with a happy, welcoming spirit. Using just fabric dye, hot water, and salt, experiment with the practice of creating your hues. Give plain white cotton dish towels a colorful upgrade, making them pretty enough to use as napkins. Former Martha Stewart Living crafts editor Silke Stoddard uses Dye pellets to dye batches of them in a washing machine, then tosses them in the dryer: “The whole process is as easy as running a load of laundry,” she explains

Fabric Dyeing Process:

Fabric Dyeing is a process where raw or greige fabric is immersed in a dye bath to impart colour. At Plakads Apparel, we focus on fabric dyeing to ensure the highest quality and consistency. Here’s a brief overview of our fabric dyeing process:

Preparation: The fabric is pre-treated to remove impurities and enhance dye uptake. This involves processes such as scouring and bleaching.
Dyeing: The prepared fabric is submerged in a dye bath where dye molecules penetrate the fibers. We use high-quality dyes and maintain precise control over temperature, time, and pH to achieve uniform coloring.
Rinsing: The dyed fabric is thoroughly rinsed to remove excess dye and chemicals.
Fixing: To ensure colorfastness, a fixing agent is applied to help bind the dye to the fabric fibers.

Garment Dyeing Process

Garment Dyeing is performed after the garment is constructed, allowing for unique finishes and effects. At Plakads Apparel, we offer two main types of garment dyeing: tie-dye and acid wash.

Preparation: The garment is pre-washed to remove any impurities in case of tie-dye, the garment is tied or bound in specific areas to resist dye penetration, creating patterns.
Dyeing & Treatment: The tied garment is immersed in a dye bath. Multiple colors can be applied to achieve various effects while for Acid Wash, A mixture of pumice stones soaked in a weak acid solution is used to create abrasion on the fabric surface, resulting in a distressed, faded look.
Setting & Neutralizing: The dye is fixed to ensure colorfastness while for acid wash, the garment is neutralized to stop the acid reaction.

Silicon Finishes

Silicon finishes are applied to fabrics to impart various functional properties, enhancing the performance and feel of the final garment. At Plakads Apparel, we offer several silicon finishes, including aroma finish, softener finish, hydrophobic finish, moisture absorbent finish, and anti-bacterial finish. The aroma finish infuses the fabric with a pleasant fragrance that lasts through multiple washes, although the fragrance may diminish over time.
