Textilcolor AG has been nominated in the SME Category of the Green Business Award 2026 with its solution LAVAN ESA – for resource-efficient textile processes.

The Green Business Award, presented by Green Business Switzerland, recognises Swiss companies that successfully combine economic success with ecological impact. This year, 30 companies from across Switzerland have been nominated, demonstrating how sustainability is becoming an integral part of future-oriented business models.

LAVAN ESA is a soaping agent for reactive dyeing and printing that enables more resource-efficient textile processes. By shortening dyeing processes and reducing the use of water, energy and time, LAVAN ESA helps lower CO₂ emissions while increasing production efficiency.

We would like to thank Swiss Textiles, Green Business Switzerland and the jury for this recognition. We are honoured to be nominated alongside many inspiring companies that are driving sustainable innovation across Switzerland.

At the end of June, the preliminary jury will select three finalists per category. The winner of the SME Category will be announced on 3 September 2026 at the Maillot Vert Sommerfest.

We look forward to the next stage of the Green Business Award 2026.
