AMSTERDAM – The Fashion for Good initiative is working with Levi’s and natural dye start-up Stony Creek Colors to pilot the use of plant-based indigo at scale in the denim industry’s supply chain.
Stony Creek Colors will provide their IndiGold indigo dye to select denim mills used by the two companies to run performance trials with different denim dyeing systems to test shade application and other efficiencies.
The project aims to have Levi garments dyed with Stony Creek Colors’ IndiGold pre-reduced dye on the market by late 2022 or early 2023.
