In the new era, under the historical background of human beings pursuing healthy life and the country promoting green and sustainable development and practicing the goal of “achieving carbon peak in 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality in 2060”, plant dyes are non-toxic and harmless due to their non-toxic and harmless properties. , environmentally friendly, biodegradable and special medicinal value have attracted much attention.
On October 10, the “2021 China Plant Dyeing Industry Standardization Construction Forum and Plant Dyeing Traceability Certification System Project” hosted by the China Plant Dyeing (Herbal Dyeing) Industry Alliance The launch ceremony was held at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai). More than 100 people, including leaders of the China National Textile and Apparel Federation, representatives of member units of the China Plant Dyeing (Herbal Dyeing) Industry Alliance, as well as textile and garment industry elites and news media representatives from across the country, attended the forum.
The forum was chaired by Ma Zhihui, Vice President of China Textile Construction Planning Institute and Vice Chairman of China Plant Dyeing (Herbal Dyeing) Industry Alliance.
The China Plant Dyeing (Herbal Dyeing) Industry Alliance was established in 2018. It is based on green manufacturing and sustainable development, with enterprises as the main body and the market as the main body. Oriented, based on government, industry, academia, research and application, characterized by the sharing of intellectual property rights, the whole industry integrates the standard formulation of terminal products, technical research on printing and dyeing links, and the organic integration of intangible cultural heritage and modern fashion. Chain integration innovation organization.
In 2019, under the promotion of the Alliance, the Plant Dyeing Standardization Working Group of the China Textile Federation Standardization Technical Committee was established to collaboratively promote the development of China’s plant dyeing industry from scientific research to market System construction will fill the gaps in the world’s plant dyeing standard system and lay a solid foundation for leading the development of the global plant dyeing industry.
Li Lingshen, Vice President of China Textile and Apparel Federation, President of China Industrial Textiles Industry Association, and Director of China Textile Federation Standardization Technical Committee, attended this forum , and said in his speech: Plant dyeing originates from nature, and the plant dyeing industry conforms to China’s green development concept and green development method. The energy-saving and consumption-reducing technology, regeneration and recycling technology, and pollutant emission reduction technology in the plant dyeing industry have brought about What is more important is the further optimization of costs and long-term stable profits; the green attributes of plant-dyed products also help break down foreign green trade barriers and become an important choice that affects consumer preferences.
Zhang Deliang, deputy director of the Shanghai Textile Science Research Institute and deputy leader of the plant dyeing working group of the China Textile Federation Standardization Committee, introduced the current domestic and foreign trends to the guests. The development of plant dyeing standardization construction. He said that since the establishment of the plant dyeing standardization working group, a number of plant dye industry standards and group standards have been implemented. The industry standard “Technical Requirements for Quality of Plant Dyeing Woven Garments” stipulated the quality of plant dyeing for woven clothing. The terms and definitions of technical requirements, dye characteristic requirements, physical and chemical properties, instructions for use, and inspection methods are expected to be submitted to the National Standards Committee by the end of the year.
Professor Yu Zhicheng of Zhejiang Science and Technology University, a member of the Expert Technical Committee of the Plant Dyeing Alliance, pointed out in the report “Technical Problems and Countermeasures in the Process of Plant Dyeing Standardization Work” that, Establishing identification methods and standards for plant dyes so that consumers can rest assured and buy satisfactory plant dye products is a top priority to ensure the development of plant dyes. While further improving the methods and standards of qualitative detection, adding metal ion detection and adopting a method that combines qualitative and quantitative methods is the direction in which current standardization work can be expanded.
Ji Junling, a professor at Changzhou University, vice chairman of the China Plant Dyeing (Herbal Dyeing) Industry Alliance, and general manager of Changzhou Meisheng Biomaterials Co., Ltd., regained interest in plant dyeing. Mining twelve years of persistence and perseverance in innovative practice, he was selected as the “2020 China Textile Intangible Cultural Heritage Promotion Ambassador”. Changzhou Meisheng Biomaterials Co., Ltd. founded by her has achieved standardized and industrialized production of plant dyes, forming 7 basic color systems and 33 different models of plant dye powder products, which can partially replace synthetic dyes.
She said at the forum that colors come from nature and return to nature. Plant dyeing is an important component of China’s textile intangible cultural heritage and can only be recreated through modern technology. Only the expression of production and modern fashion can make traditional technology prosperous, adhere to creative transformation and innovative development, find the connection point between intangible cultural heritage and modern life, and meet the people’s growing needs for a better life.
In his concluding speech, Feng Dehu, President of China Textile Construction Planning Institute and Chairman of China Plant Dyeing (Herbal Dyeing) Industry Alliance, discussed from the perspective of carbon emission reduction, standardization and traceability Three aspects were shared with you about the future development trends of the plant dyeing industry.
He elaborated from the two perspectives of dye preparation and printing and dyeing process, and calculated the comparable synthesis per ton of plant-dyed knitted fabrics in the printing and dyeing process through real production data collection. Dye dyeing reduces carbon emissions by 27 tons, which supports the scientific conclusion that the plant dyeing industry meets the goal of “achieving carbon peak in 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality in 2060”.
As the leader of the vegetable dyeing working group of the China Textile Federation Standardization Committee, Feng Dehu announced at the meeting four dyeing products including gardenia, prickly ash, pomegranate peel and diosphorus. The recent task of drafting a group standard for plant dyes for textile use will begin today. This initiative will continue to fill in the system gaps in the world’s plant dye standards and lay a solid foundation for the development of my country’s leading global plant dye industry.
Finally, Feng Dehu expressed his opinions on the dyes developed under the auspices of the China Plant Dyeing (Herbal Dyeing) Industry Alliance.The “Plant Dyeing Traceability Certification System” was introduced in detail. It is reported that the system is based on six levels of associated data from plant dye raw materials to end-use textiles, and uses the form of “one item, one code” to trace the ingredients of the product. Logistics tracking, interactive marketing, etc. provide certification.
The forum ushered in an exciting moment at the end, with Yu Zhicheng, Ji Junling, Xie Qing, Feng Dehu, Zhang Deliang, Chen Wen, Together with Ma Zhihui (from left to right), and witnessed by the guests on site, Feng Dehu announced the official launch of the plant dye traceability certification system project, and also released the basic image of the visual identity of the traceability system. The forum and launch ceremony were successfully completed, In the first year of the 14th Five-Year Plan, we have promoted sustainable development under the “double carbon” goal for the plant dyeing industry and achieved new breakthroughs!
