The document discusses several fabric treatment methods from Kurabo that have ecological benefits due to reduced water and energy usage. Cold stone washing and dyeing can save 30°C in temperature, reducing methane and CO2 emissions. The KoJak treatment combines cold stone washing with neutralizing to save approximately 16L of water per unit. Resins that polymerize at 90°C rather than 140°C also reduce emissions. Rizzo fabric treatment has an ecological aspect through reduced water consumption of approximately 16L/unit compared to normal washing.

KURABO FABRIC: SW STONE WASH + COLD DYEING
= ECOLOGICAL TREATEMENT DUE TO THE
TEMPERATURE SAVING:
* BY USING COLD STONE WASH IT RESULTS A
SAVING OF 30 ° C, WHICH ALSO REPRESENTS A
SAVING OF 3 m³ CH4 (METHAN ) OUT OF BURNING =
APPROXIMATELY 5.7 Kg OF CO2 EMISSION IN THE AIR
* BY USING COLD DYEING IT RESULTS A SAVING OF

6. RIZZO
KURABO FABRIC - AN OLDER TYPE OF TREATEMENT
MEANING DRY DECOLORATION, BUT COMBINED WITH
NEW PROCEDURES SUCH AS 3D EFFECTS CAN
GENERATE INTERESTING RESULTS, MAINLY
WASHINGS WITH A MORE AGGRESSIVE VISUAL
IMPACT
** THIS TYPE OF PROCESS ALSO HAS AN
ECOLOGICAL ASPECT DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT
REDUCES THE WATER CONSUMPTION WITH
APPROXIMATELY 16 L / UNIT, UNLIKE A
DECOLORATION MADE WITH A NORMAL WASHING
MACHINE.
