The process
At Tejidos Royo, the yarns are dyed and woven into denim fabric. Currently two types of dyeing techniques are used: C2C indigo dye and the Dry Indigo Process. Both techniques use zero harmful chemicals and are made to protect the planet and the people that work with it. Once the jeans are dyed, all water used in the process is purified and cleaned before it is released into the environment. After the yarns are dyed they are woven into a fabric cloth. A quality check is performed before the fabric is shipped to our denim manufacturer Yousstex International.
