In this brief YouTube dialogue, speakers A and B discuss Montega's innovative fabric finishing process that creates a glossy effect on garments. The treatment combines a garment dye with a spray application of mineral pigments extracted from rock, which are bound using a formaldehyde‑free resin called Resimax FIM. The resin and overall process hold DAC Level 3 certification and are GOTS‑validated, indicating compliance with organic and low‑impact standards. The conversation highlights the ability to modify the garment’s feel (softer or not) and emphasizes the novelty of using mineral pigments and certified, eco‑friendly binders.

Let's talk about this. This is pretty insane.
Here there is a glossy effect. This is a product of Montega that enable you to modify the end feel of the garment. It can be more soft or not.
Which process was applied to this? This was like a garment dye and then like a spray?
Yes, and then you have pigment and also butterfly inside the machine during the dyeing process.
Not real butterflies.
No. This is made with mineral pigment. This is crazy. Yes. Mineral pigment extracted from the rock with a resin that is a binder for mineral pigment. The resin is Resimax FIM, is a formaldehyde-free resin, and the resin is certified, so the DAC Level 3, and GOTS validated.
Very cool. Super cool.
