Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the difference between wetting and re-wetting agents?
A: Wetting agents promote initial water penetration into dry fabric, while re-wetting agents restore absorbency in treated or hydrophobic fabrics.

Q2: Where are penetrating agents used in textiles?
A: Penetrating agents are used in dyeing and finishing processes to help chemicals and dyestuffs reach the fiber core uniformly.

Q3: Are Texaux wetting and re-wetting agents eco-friendly?
A: Yes. All Texaux products are APEO-free, biodegradable, and compliant with ZDHC and GOTS sustainability norms.

Q4: Can wetting agents be combined with detergents or enzymes?
A: Yes. Texaux wetting agents are compatible with most surfactants, enzymes, and bleaching agents, ensuring efficient process integration.
