SYDNEY - Australian textile technology firm Xefco has announced it will next year set up a pilot manufacturing facility for its new plasma-based method of applying dyes and coatings to textiles.

Xefco’s Ausora solution was developed in collaboration with Deakin University’s Institute for Frontier Materials (IFM) and engineering equipment provider Proficiency Contracting with US$3.4 million funding from the Innovative Manufacturing Cooperative Research Centre (IMCRC).

It is claimed to reduce water use by 88 per cent and energy use by 86 per cent, compared to conventional wet processes, by using plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition.
