Sustainable CHT innovations at the PERFORMANCE DAYS SPRING Functional Fabric Fair

CHT is looking forward to participating in the PERFORMANCE DAYS in Munich on March 5 and 6, 2025.

At the fair, we will be showcasing at booth E11 our latest sustainable textile technologies - with a focus on innovative dyeing processes and functional finishes that specifically improve textile properties.

 

Our trade fair highlights:

  • PIGMENTURA by CHT 

    Our innovative, pigment-based dyeing process uses no water at all for soaping and rinsing and does not require energy-intensive heating of the process water. As a result, water consumption in the dyeing process can be reduced by up to 96 %. This pioneering technology was awarded the German Federal Ecodesign Award in the Product category in 2024 - a result of the successful collaboration between Inditex and CHT.

  • ECOPRINT by CHT

    Our water-based textile printing system with reactive and pigment inks meets the highest sustainability standards and has been awarded the C2C Certified Material Health Certificate™. It actively contributes to converting linear production processes into circular systems and promoting the textile circular economy.

  • TUBINGAL® RISE

    Our innovative softener is made from recycled end-of-life silicones and consists of over 60 % recycled silicone waste and emulsifiers from renewable raw materials. CHT is thus setting new standards for sustainable softeners in the textile industry.

  • ARRISTAN rAIR

    Our sustainable hydrophilic finish is made from recycled PET flakes and ensures optimum moisture regulation, fast drying and excellent dirt repellency. ARRISTAN rAIR is ideal for finishing recycled yarns and fabrics, which can then be recycled again - an important contribution to the textile circular economy.


In 2024, CHT was once again awarded the adiformulator Award by adidas as a champion for sustainable innovation - for the second time in a row. This honor underscores our commitment to actively shaping the future of the textile industry with sustainable solutions.

As a foundation-owned company, CHT is committed to a comprehensive sustainability agenda. Our products are designed and manufactured according to strict standards, with a focus on using bio-based, biodegradable and recycled materials to support a circular economy.

Visit us at our booth E11 at the PERFORMANCE DAYS SPRING Functional Fabric Fair in Munich and discover our sustainable innovations. Our team is looking forward to presenting our products and giving you exciting insights into the textile future!
