PRESS ROOM

28 Feb

Munich, Germany – February 25, 2026 – The CHT Group, a global leader in textile chemistry and dyes, will present its latest sustainable textile technologies at the PERFORMANCE DAYS Functional Fabric Fair in Munich on March 18 and 19, 2026.

The company will exhibit cutting-edge dyeing processes and functional finishes designed to enhance textile properties whilst significantly reducing environmental impact at booth E01.

At the forefront of CHT's exhibition is PIGMENTURA by CHT, a revolutionary pigment-based dyeing process that eliminates the need for water in soaping and rinsing stages, and requires no energy-intensive heating of process water.

This breakthrough technology reduces water consumption in the dyeing process by up to 96 percent.

PIGMENTURA has earned prestigious recognition, receiving the German Federal Ecodesign Award in the Product category in 2024 and the German Sustainability Award in the Products category in 2026.

The company will also showcase BeSo®STRONG, an innovative textile treatment that significantly increases the durability and wear resistance of fabrics.

This technology extends garment lifespan without compromising comfort or appearance, making it ideal for workwear, outerwear, knitwear, and everyday clothing.

BeSo®STRONG is particularly effective with recycled cotton fibres, offering a sustainable solution for reducing textile waste whilst maintaining high performance standards.

Another highlight is ARRISTAN rAIR, a sustainable hydrophilic finish manufactured from recycled PET flakes.

This finish delivers optimal moisture management, rapid drying, and excellent dirt repellency, making it ideal for recycled yarns and fabrics that can be recycled again—a vital contribution to the circular textile economy.

CHT's commitment to sustainable innovation has been consistently recognised by industry leaders.

In 2025, adidas honoured the company with the adiFORMULATOR AWARD for the third consecutive year, acknowledging CHT as a champion of sustainable innovation.

As a foundation-owned company, the CHT Group maintains a comprehensive sustainability agenda.

All products are developed and manufactured according to strict standards, with particular emphasis on bio-based, biodegradable, and recycled materials to advance the circular economy.
