Research on the dyeing industry, natural dyes and colours of clothing

Today is the European Day of Languages and we would like to remember our international followers and readers. As far as we know, our blog has readers, e.g. from the USA, the Netherlands, Hongkong and Singapore, Germany and Estonia. We would like to remind you that our research group has also published articles on the dyeing industry, use of natural dyes as well as clothing in English. If you wish to read our previous research in English, please have look on the following ones:
