A major source of pollution from the Clothing Industry comes from the wastewater dye house effluent. Where our products are dyed, the water is recovered, then cleaned and recirculated. After the water has settled and been skimmed, the water is filtered using reverse osmosis and distillation. This means sucking up water through really fine sand over and over, then boiling it. <\/p>

Salt is then added back in so that they dye adheres and all the mucky mulch leftovers are dried out and get this - they're used to make road markings. About 95% of the water is recirculated and recovered.<\/p>

Finally, the water coming out of the filters and going back round to be reused again is crystal clear, literally clean enough to drink. Once it's been cleaned it is then used at the input for the next batch. It's a closed loop system - How about that!! <\/p>

Ohzone are proud to be sustainable....<\/p>
