Officina39 takes low-temperature dyeing system to South Asia trade fairs

Officina39 is taking its Low Temperature Reactive Dyeing System to the two places where textile chemistry has to prove itself in public: BTKG 2026 in Dhaka and Denimsandjeans India 2026 in Bengaluru. Mills will be asking the blunt questions that matter most, how much heat it cuts, how much water it saves, how fast it runs, and what it costs to retrofit. That is the real test for any cleaner dyeing pitch, not the booth graphics.

BTKG 2026 ran from April 29 to May 2 at the International Convention City Bashundhara in Dhaka, and it was built like a serious supply-chain machine, not a boutique showcase. The event pulled together about 900 companies and brands from 30 countries, with 1,200 booths spread across 20,000 square metres and eight halls. In that kind of room, sustainability talk has to compete with production math. Officina39’s bet is that lower-temperature reactive dyeing can do both, reducing environmental impact while keeping quality in line for textile production that is already under pressure to clean up.

The timing is pointed because dyeing and finishing account for 36% of textile industry carbon impact, a share that keeps energy efficiency near the top of every mill manager’s wish list. Officina39 is selling more than a single system, too. The company says it has about 30 years of experience in textile chemical research and application, and it presents itself as a sustainable chemistry specialist for textile, garment and denim. Its portfolio includes dyeing auxiliaries, dyestuffs and pigments, which gives it a broader pitch than a one-trick denim supplier chasing the next trade-show crowd.

The India stop comes next. Denimsandjeans India 2026 will run on May 6 and 7 at The Lalit Ashok in Bengaluru, where Textile Focus listed Officina39 at Booth K12. The fair is the eighth edition, and its own positioning points to a market that is still expanding fast, with more than 250 international brands expected to set up base in India over the next three years. That makes Bengaluru less of a victory lap than a stress test: if the system can win attention there, it is because buyers see a path from chemistry claim to production-line reality.

Officina39 is also leaning on credentials that matter in the sustainability arms race. The company says some products carry GOTS certification, ZDHC certification, GreenScreen assessments and EIM registration. It also says its Recycrom Ready to Dye range contains at least 65% textile waste from pre- and post-consumer materials. Put together, the message is clear: this is not just a denim story anymore. Officina39 wants to be read as a technology partner for the wider textile sector, and South Asia is where that claim has to survive first contact with the factory floor.
