Organic Dyestuff's Dyeselect Program

The DyeSelect™ program has been primarily designed for the textile industry, however, some non-textile product information is also available.

DyeSelect is an interactive reference tool containing over 4000 pages of information enabling a textile industry user to select dyes, pigments, colorants, chemicals, and procedures for common fibers and blends.

ORCO offers the DyeSelect CD-ROM program on a complimentary basis to their customers and other qualified parties who request the program, all a customer has to do is register.

Provided on CD-ROM and designed for PC-Windows computers, the DyeSelect program uses an intuitive interface to lead the user step by step through the selection of procedures and products for substrate preparation, dyeing and finishing of a wide range of textile fibers and blends.
A complete description of each dye class, and a comprehensive index to more than six hundred ORCO chemical auxiliaries, dyes, optical whiteners, pigments, and specialty non-textile dyes, enables users to decide which product and process is best for their particular need.

The program enables the user to access and print out all procedures, sample request forms for specified products, Technical Bulletins on all products(including physical properties), and Material Safety Data Sheets(MSDS).
A helpful Tech Center section contains dyestuff/fiber facts, dye and chemical substitutions, technical references, information on specialty direct and acid dyes, and a table of commonly used chemicals, including their common names, formulas, pH of various products, and their application. The Tech Center also contains conversion tables for weight, temperature and measurement.
