Honey extract is a mixture of colour plant extracts based on thyme extract, rich in flavonoids and tannins.<\/span><\/strong>
\nThis 100% natural extract was developed for textile applications. It does provide nice “honey” shades from the thyem extract. This natural dye is manufactured from local by-products of the PPAM sector (Perfume, Aromatic and Medicinal Plants) – thyme stems and leaves (Thymus vulgaris<\/em> L.) from distillation or separation. <\/span><\/strong>
\nA GREAT EXAMPLE OF CO-VALORIZATION AND UPCYCLING<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Main components : flavones (luteolin, apigenin and their derivatives) + tannins<\/p>\n

Uses :<\/span>
\n<\/strong>Natural dye & textile printing<\/span> : this plant extract allows to dye any type of fibers. It does provide more intense colors on mordanted wool. Indicative shades depend on the recipe and mordant : Yellow-straw (aluminum mordant), grey-brown in the presence of iron, orange light in the presence of titanium. This extract provides a good lightfastness.<\/p>\n

Other uses<\/span> : Medicinal plant: the leaves and stems of thyme are traditionally used for symptomatic treatments of digestive disorders, coughs and as a mouthwash. The essential oil is used in the formula of various pharmaceutical specialties and is widely used as an antiseptic in aromatherapy. It is also present in the perfumery and hygiene products sectors. Aromatic plant: the leaf and dry flowering tops of thyme are used in the food sector and in many culinary preparations. It is also an excellent honey plant.
\nNot suitable for food use.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The plant :<\/span><\/strong> Thymes are sub-shrubs with woody, tortuous and very branchy stems, bearing small pale pink or white flowers. They are perennial plants of the Lamiaceae family. Thyme is very resistant. It needs sun and grows wild on the arid and rocky hills of the Mediterranean regions up to 1,500 to 2,000 meters above sea level. The plant is found in Western Europe. It is also established in Eastern and Southern Europe.
\nThe essential oil is obtained from fresh flowering aerial parts. The essential oil content varies from 5 to 25 ml\/kg and its composition varies depending on the chemotype.<\/p>\n

Co-products and upcycling :<\/span><\/strong> based in the South of France, GREEN\u2019ING is committed to develop natural colors from local plants and valorize agro-industrial co-products. This thyme extract is a perfect example, resulting from GREEN\u2019ING\u2019s research and development in extraction from distillation by-products and aromatic herb sectors. A new example of proximity between the dye plant sectors and PPAM, a source of bio-economy.
\nIt is one of the basic ingredients of the new range of extracts that we offer in warm and varied colors from Occitania.<\/p>\n
