About Oxford biocolours

Oxford biocolours started with a simple question: Why are most colours still made from polluting chemicals? Founders Jim and Darren set to work researching plant-based dyes that could truly replace synthetic ones — colours that wouldn’t fade in the sun, run in the wash, or rely on toxic chemicals to work. Today, Oxford biocolours brings lab-developed, plant-based dyes together with British wool and skilled dyeing partners to create yarn that’s bold, reliable, and genuinely better for the planet.
