Bonneau Company: Industrial Fabric Dye Products

At Bonneau Company, we have the right product to service your textile dye needs. Our bright and vivid industrial fabric dye products will enhance the appearance of your shop towels, bar towels, and other cotton fabrics.

While always available in bulk packaging, for ease of application, our shop towel fabric color dyes are also available in water soluble (PVA) film or paper packets. Standard 8 ounce and our new Color Care® Power-Pak 4-ounce packets can provide industrial and institutional laundries with a package that dissolves completely in water. This delivery method greatly simplifies the industrial dyeing process by adding a specified number of packets per 100 lbs. of fabric depending upon depth of color desired. Packets eliminate the need to manually measure portions which helps to keep the laundry environment dust free, clean, and safe while finished fabric consistently looks crisp and colorful.
