Procion MX is a range of fabric dyes with unique properties, created to fill a major gap in textile dyeing. Thanks to their special formulation, they chemically bond with the fiber itself — they are fiber reactive — and do not require heat setting like most traditional dyes. They form strong covalent bonds with cellulose fibers, delivering permanent results and clean, vibrant color on natural fabrics.

They do not require boiling or hot water to activate. Procion MX dyes dissolve easily in tap water at room temperature, producing intense and stable color while helping protect even delicate fabrics from shrinkage or distortion.

The Burgundy shade is a deep, wine-toned red with rich burgundy undertones 🍷 It adds depth and elegance to techniques such as ice dyeing and shibori, while also performing beautifully in solid dyeing, gradation and ombre applications. It is an excellent choice for dramatic, vintage or sophisticated palettes and pairs beautifully with golds, warm neutrals, deep greens, petrol blues and charcoal tones.

Procion MX dyes are highly durable, easy to use and suitable for natural fibers. One package contains enough dye to color more than 0.45 kg (1 lb) of dry fabric (intense colors require more dye, pastel tones less).

🔥 They are ideal for shibori, batik, ice dyeing, printing, screen printing, immersion dyeing, fabric painting, gradation & ombre techniques, sprinkle dyeing, or any other technique that requires clean, stable color on fabric. It’s no coincidence that Procion MX dyes are a favorite among macramé artists and textile designers.

👉 Features:

Cold water fabric dye (chemically fixed, no heat required)
Permanent & wash-fast once fixed
Suitable for batik, tie dye, shibori, ice dyeing, tub & low water immersion dyeing, printing, painting and other alternative techniques
Color: Burgundy
Size: 0.75oz / 18.7 g

💪 Ideal for:
cotton, linen, jute, hemp, ramie, sisal, canvas, paper, rayon and other natural fibers 🌿
Also suitable for protein fibers (silk, wool) when using an acidic medium.

⚠ Soda ash is required when dyeing cellulose fibers.

🔊 Syntrapol is recommended before, during and after dyeing to remove residues, improve dye penetration and help prevent future color bleeding.

✨ Inspiration
Burgundy brings drama, depth and timeless sophistication 🍷 Use it in ice dyeing for rich, expressive transitions or in shibori for bold contrasts with an elegant finish. Perfect for statement textiles, macramé and refined fabric projects.

Procion MX dyes are “cold water dyes” that are fixed chemically instead of with heat. This unique property sets Procion MX apart from all other dyes and establishes them as the undisputed king of backyard dyeing, batik and tie dye.

Because Procion MX dyes can be used away from the stovetop, they are also the ideal colors for shibori, ice dyeing, tub and low water immersion dyeing, printing, direct painting and other “alternative” dye applications. As a fiber-reactive dye, Procion MX forms a strong covalent bond with cellulosic fibers, making it the most permanent and washfast of all dyestuffs. Mix the concentrated dye powder with tap water to create the most vibrant colors possible for cotton, linen and other plant-based fabrics (may also be used with protein fibers if acidified).

Procion MX dyes are typically used with a soda ash fixative, which can be added directly to the dye bath or used to pretreat the fabric as in tie dyeing and other “batch setting” techniques.

🔷 WHAT AMOUNTS OF PROCION MX DO I NEED FOR DYEING?

A small container (18,71 g) dyes approx. 500g of dry fabric. Please note that you need more dye for very bright colors and less for pastel color tones. Black requires the double amount.

🔷 COLD DYE WITH PROCION MX?

Unlike the usual 'hot water textile dyes', Procion MX-Dyes are fixed chemically and not with heat. Thanks to this unique property, Procion MX can be used for all modern dye techniques - e.g. for batik or the very popular tie dye. Along with Procion MX Textile Dye, all you need is a dye activator = soda (sodium carbonate) and salt.

Here's a short summary of the chemical process:
When the textile dye penetrates the fibre together with soda and salt, a permanent bond is created. As a fibre-reactive dye, Procion MX bonds with the fibre on the molecular level and becomes a chemical part of the fabric. That makes this dye really washfast.

🔷 DYEING OF SILK OR SYNTHETIC FIBRES?

▪ We do not recommend Procion MX for protein fibres (silk, feathers, wool etc.). Experienced dyers can also dye silk with Procion MX, however the color tones will not be identical to the dye results on cellulose fibres. Replace soda with vinegar or baking soda. Animal wool cannot be dyed with Procion MX.

▪ Synthetic fibres, such as polyester, polyacrylic or polyamide cannot be dyed with Procion MX either.
