The textile industry operates in a highly competitive environment and is under constant pressure to cut costs. Textile processing is also under the scanner of pollution boards due to effluent issues, the treatment of which has added tremendously to operating costs. While advances in chemical technology have helped develop fabrics of superior quality and advanced features, chemicals per se have added to the toxicity of effluents and have further complicated the process of effluent treatment.
The range of products launched under the brand name Proviera by Proklean Technologies Pvt. Ltd. that are GOTS & Oeko Tex Class I compliant for textile applications have come as a boon for the textile industry by addressing the problem of rising costs and pollution. With superior features, the Proviera range of products have captured a decent market share in south India’s textile processing within a span of an year.
Mr. Chandrasekhar, Director – Technical, says: “Proviera products are developed on the revolutionary platform of ‘probiotics’ and are completely bio-degradable. Our range of products from pre-treatment to dyeing to finishing have demonstrated savings in water and power usage even as they have helped in cutting down the use of chemicals such as caustic, peroxide, dyes, acetic acid, etc.”
Ms. Radhika, Head – Sales & Marketing, observes: “We are able to step in and make our presence strongly felt in the textile industry, especially in the South, as we are able to give an apt solution for the current concerns of the textile industry with dramatic end results. We are able to clearly demonstrate the superiority of our products by saving water to the tune of 20 per cent during processing, reducing costs due to lesser chemicals usage, cutting effluent load on environment due to lower COD, TDS and other parameters, and improving eco footprint due to savings on water and power usage”.
With a significant resource deployment in R&D, Proklean will launch more products in the future that will truly carry forward the revolution that has just begun in the textile industry.
