Eco-friendly natural indigo, Henna and Calx - special combo - 1,2,3 indigo dye vat method.

Traditional indigo dye vat recipes include chemicals such as Thiox and soda ash and these work extremely well for standardised and effective dyeing results.  However, we are fully aware that everyone has preferences and for some this is to follow a  totally organic  and eco-friendly recipe and method for natural dyeing.  

We have therefore created a dye kit following the well established Organic indigo vat 1, 2, 3 method.  This recipe combines our wonderful natural indigo powder with Calcium hydroxide (the alkaline base) and natural henna powder as the antioxidant.  Please note for this method to work, it is essential to brew up the natural antioxidant syrup (using the henna included) such that it is in a suitable state once added,  to reduce oxygen effectively from your indigo dye vat.  Follow the instructions provided with the dye kit.

This organic and eco-friendly indigo dye kit offers everything needed to get going with indigo Vat dyeing.  The kit includes:

1 x 50g Natural Indigo Dye powder

1 x 100g Calcium Hydroxide (alkaline base)

1 x 200g Natural Henna Powder 

1 x pack of pH test strips (x80)

1 x Instruction Booklet for indigo vat 1-2-3 dyeing.

Totally eco-friendly, drainage waste friendly and biodegradable
