Bioscouring Enzyme (Pectinase) for Cotton
Pectinase-based bioscouring enzyme for the eco-friendly pre-treatment of cotton fabric, replacing conventional NaOH alkaline scouring. It degrades pectic substances in the primary cell wall of cotton fibers, releasing natural waxes and improving fabric absorbency without fiber degradation. Significantly reduces water, energy, and chemical consumption in cotton pre-treatment.
