Abstract

See full text

Overdyed carpets, as well as other textiles, and methods of producing the same are provided. Overdyeing can be performed on predyed and/or undyed fibers to produce an overdyed carpet with a predominant hue throughout. Predyed fibers can differ in hue, saturation, or value, or any combination thereof from each other and/or from the overdye. The overdyed carpet can include at least one auxiliary chemical. A single auxiliary chemical or a combination of auxiliary chemicals can provide stain resistance, color fastness, and/or bleach resistance, or any combination thereof. These carpets and methods provide aesthetic, financial, and environmental benefits by allowing for utilization of waste fiber, yarn, carpet, and other textiles that would otherwise require resale at substantial discount or landfill disposal.
