New products as well as new techniques are being developed. Due to the rising energy costs and the enormous expenses related to waste removal, Avco pays a lot of attention to water and energy savings during the development of new textile finishing techniques and products.
Avco promotes and supports the introduction of alternative water, energy and chemical saving technologies, formulas and/or additives and helps the industry in selecting and implementing eco-friendly products and techniques.
