Combined Enzyme & Bleach Wash

Process Step Elimination and Water Conservation in Denim Washing

Denim Processing Facility, Bangladesh

The Challenge

Traditional garment washing cycles separate enzyme washing (fabric softening) and bleaching (color fading) into separate stages. This requires draining the bath, rinsing, refilling, reheating, and adding fresh chemicals, leading to excessive water, energy, and time waste.

The Solution

Optimized the chemical recipe to combine enzyme treatment and bleach into a single bath. By managing bath pH, temp (75°C), and chemical synergy, the facility eliminated 3 wash/rinse cycles per batch. Fabric QC approved shade consistency, hand-feel, and strength.
