CHT Group's PIGMENTURA Wins German Sustainability Award for Transforming Textile Dyeing
Düsseldorf, Germany – December 4, 2025 – CHT Group is proud to announce that its innovative textile dyeing concept, PIGMENTURA, has been named the winner of the prestigious German Sustainability Award in the Products category.
The award ceremony, held in Düsseldorf on December 4, recognized PIGMENTURA as a transformative solution capable of significantly reducing the environmental impact of one of the world's most resource-intensive industries.
