Colour and finishes

Ozone wash

A finishing treatment using ozone’s oxidising action to change the appearance of colour, particularly in denim.

Ozone wash

The detail that defines it.

Ozone acts on existing colour: it is not a fibre and does not mean a garment is dyed with gas. Intensity and results depend on the treatment applied.

Three stages for adding colour.

The stage of dyeing and the way colour is fixed are different things. Pigments and reactive dyes can be used at different stages.

  1. Yarn dye

    Before weaving or knitting.

  2. Piece dye

    Before cutting and making the garment.

  3. Garment dye

    After the garment is made.

Care starts with understanding.

Care for the garment according to its label and composition. Ozone finishing is not a home-care instruction or a replacement for washing recommendations.

Your garment’s label has the final word. Check its composition and specific instructions before washing, drying or ironing.

Every garment has its own details.

Check each style’s product page for composition, weight, origin and finishes. This guide explains concepts rather than replacing its specific information.
