Natural dyes: their past, present, future and sustainability

Original language description

This chapter is a contribution to the collective scientific monograph concerning the textile material engineering. It deals with the natural dyeing of textiles from different perspectives and critical view. Natural colourants and dyestuffs are an important group of non-wood forest products which find use in industries producing confectionery, other food products, textiles, cosmetics, medicines, leather, paper, paint, ink, etc. This chapter reflects on comparison of natural and synthetic dyes because number of problems and questions arise in connection with the use of natural dyes. Are natural dyes really an environmentally friendly alternative of synthetic dyes? Is industrial and general use of natural dyes in the textile industry practicable, beneficial and sustainable? This chapter seeks answers to these questions with regard to the modern scientific knowledge.
