Natural dyes are colorants derived from natural sources such as plants, animals, and minerals. Unlike synthetic dyes, which are produced through chemical processes, natural dyes are obtained through the extraction of pigments from natural materials like roots, leaves, flowers, bark, insects, and minerals. These dyes have been used for centuries in various applications, including textiles, food, cosmetics, and art, offering a range of colors that are often more muted and varied than synthetic alternatives. Natural dyes are valued for their eco-friendly properties, biodegradability, and potential health benefits, making them a sustainable option in an increasingly environmentally conscious market.
