Jeanologia, the inventor of the laser treatment for textile, has become a world leader in developing technologies for the denim industry. It currently has customers in five continents, and export of its machines and services accounts for 90 per cent of its turnover. The US, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Brazil, India, China, Russia, Mexico, Japan, Morocco, Bangladesh and Colombia are among the 45 countries importing its products.
Leading brands like Levi’s, Polo Jeans, Abercrombie & Fitch, Edwin Japan, Pepe Jeans, Diesel, Hilfiguer Denim, Salsa jeans, or large retailers such as GAP, Uniclo and Zara have placed their trust in the Spanish company using the techniques and technologies developed by it.
Jeanologia has since long been the pioneer of laser for the textile industry as well as additional sustainable solutions for garment finishing, and has consolidated its experience as a global expert in 3e technology for denim/no denim finishing processes.
Following this environmental footprint, the company designed its technologies based on principles of ecology, ethics and efficiency (3e), providing for faster production cycle and great savings of energy, water and chemicals without any cost increase.
At ITMA Asia in Shanghai, Jeanologia showcased the G2 eco-technology together with Twin HS textile laser equipped with MD rotating mannequin and two laser resonators, a more powerful process enabling faster production by marking on both legs. Furthermore, Twin HS generates amazing savings per garment in production time, water and energy.
The introduction of laser in textile is preventing the use of such techniques highly dangerous for workers’ health and has reduced energy consumption and environmental pollution. Besides, this laser is able to reproduce complex wears and tears, reducing production time and increasing precision and reproducibility for a more authentic look.
In addition to laser, Jeanologia also showcased the G2 eco-technology. This finishing process machine is an ozone generator using electrical current to charge oxygen molecules in the incoming air and produce ozone for denim and shirt finishings. A guaranteed ultimate vintage look without water or chemicals, providing for 62 per cent savings on kw/h, 67 per cent on water, 85 per cent chemicals and improving production time of 85 per cent.
The environmental benefits attached to this new process are undoubtedly certain. Given the worldwide annual jeans production rounding six billion units, for each manufactured pair of jeans a total of 70 litres water, one kw/h and 150 grams chemicals are employed.
Jeanologia has its well established presence in China, thanks to its Hong Kong-based office, and tech customer service in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Canton providing for an excellent service hub in Asia. Present in the Indian market for the past seven years through its own company and demo center, the company serves more than 50 customers with over 200 installations.
