Natural dyeing is a centuries-old technique that uses plant-based, mineral, and animal-derived substances to create vibrant, eco-friendly colors on textiles. In Laos, natural dyes have been a cornerstone of traditional weaving, with artisans using locally sourced materials such as indigo, turmeric, and bark to produce rich, sustainable hues. Today, this practice not only preserves cultural heritage but also supports sustainable production methods that align with the growing demand for environmentally conscious products in global markets.
This Information Hub section provides insights into traditional dyeing techniques, the benefits of natural dyes, and how Laos MSMEs can incorporate these practices to enhance their product appeal and meet international sustainability standards.
