Jeanologia is redefining fabric finishing with G2 Dynamic, the first ozone treatment for continuous fabric, thereby contributing to its goal of dehydration and detoxification of jeans.

G2 Dynamic technology is designed to guarantee a detoxed and sustainable fabric, in addition to reducing water and chemical consumption from 85% to 95% and energy from 70% to 80%. For example, if a kilogram of fabric uses between 15 and 20 litres of water, with G2 Dynamic the complete process uses from 0.5 to a maximum of 3 litres per kilo.

This technology has been gaining a lot of traction in the industry, and 30 fabric manufacturers have incorporated it into their production process within only three years of its launch, the company reports. Jean Pierre Inchauspe, the person in charge of G2 Dynamic, has pointed out that “the main weavers of the five continents are already using this technology as an indispensable process for the sustainable finishing of their fabrics”.

Water savings

Jeanologia’s 2025 objective for this technology is to achieve an average saving of more than 8.5 million cubic metres of water per year. This is the amount necessary for the annual human consumption of more than 3.5 million people.

Eighty percent of these machines are being used for the finishing of denim (blue and black) and 20% for the finishing of loom state  (other colours), the market for denim fabric in colour will become more important in the year to come.

“With this technology, the company brings to the market a sustainable alternative to several traditional, more polluting and water consuming processes in the textile industry. Furthermore, it improves and boosts subsequent production stages up to the finishing of the garment, making them more efficient and allowing companies to be more competitive, increase productivity and offer a product that is completely sustainable,” the company says.

Jeanologia

With more of 20 years of experience, the company has been recognised as a winner of WSGN Global Fashion Awards. The Spanish company has customers across five continents and exports of machinery and services accounts for 90% of its turnover.

Major brands such as Levi's, Polo Jeans, Abercrombie & Fitch, Edwin Japan, Pepe Jeans, Diesel, Hilfiger Denim, Salsa jeans, and other large retailers have placed their trust in the company’s products.
