textile Foron ® S-WF Today’s textile market has become highly competitive and is witnessing growing consumer awareness about quality. Under such conditions, products have to fulfill the most demanding requirements. In particular, end-customers are expecting constant innovation with features such as wash and wear, easy care and soft touch (with e.g. micro-fiber articles), together of course with vibrant and resistant colors. With the Foron ® S-WF dyestuffs, an evolution of the Foron ® S-type disperse dyes (pioneered by Clariant in the 1950s when still operating under the former Sandoz name), we do not only meet these requirements, but today can offer a conclusive range of dyestuffs that are able to cover the full scope of the most fashionable shades. Foron ® S-WF grades, with their market leading color fastness levels and highest sublimation fastness, enhance today’s textile products in the apparel, workwear and sportswear segments, whilst giving textile producers a Clariant has now developed two new dyestuffs to further consolidate this range.

The market-leading color consistency of Foron ® S-WF dyes enables a stable shade under different light sources, e.g. D65, CWF TL84 and Tungsten, minimizing metamerism issues. The Foron ® S-WF dye range covers a wide range of fashionable shades from yellows, oranges and reds, to blues, greens and navies, to blacks.

Soil, oil, food or liquids might come into contact with our apparel, leaving stains which are often hard to remove or non- removable. At the same time consumers’ demand for protection and cleaning properties are constantly increasing. Therefore the trend towards soil repellent- and stain releaseimpregnation is growing, not least to avoid time consuming and costly cleaning and to ensure easy care and long life for all kind of fabrics. Effect Labels When customers are looking for clothes they can easily judge the color and the shape – but not all their properties. Therefore, it is absolutely vital to communicate functional effects such as water repellence, soil release, etc., which are not easy to see. These properties add value to the garments and are therefore a good selling proposition. This is why Clariant provides you with effect labels to help the customer recognize properties that are not visible at first sight. On the following pages, see how our solutions work for you! 6 colour chronicle 3 | 2012
