After investing two years of research into its newest product range, Garmon was able to apply the superior science of Kemin to its knowledge and experience in garment finishing to become the first textile chemical company to self-produce a range of enzymes offering not found in any other industry products. Kemzymes offer a combination of sustainability, performance and cost competitiveness.

The first kemzymes products available are two lines of stonewashing enzymes: kemzymes ks and kemzymes k.

Kemzymes ks are the uncompromised, concentrated version of Garmon’s new neutral cellulase enzymes for denim stonewashing. Designed to work at room temperature and included in the ZDHC Gateway, kemzymes ks open the possibility to eliminate the use of pumice stones.

Kemzymes k, also included in the ZDHC Gateway, are strong powder enzymes for denim stonewashing. Delivering a perfect combination of abrasion power, sustainable characteristics and superior value, kemzymes k are designed to become the best seller of denim stonewashing enzymes for all types of industrial laundries.

“As the first textile chemical company to produce our own enzymes – not just blend them, as many do – we set our own standards very high,” said Kimberly Nelson, president, Kemin Textile Auxiliaries. “The textile chemicals market is saturated with options promising outstanding results, but most fail to deliver. To continue distinguishing Garmon as a brand with research-backed products and proven solutions, performance was the key target when we developed kemzymes.”

Kemzymes outperform every other popular enzyme used in the denim-washing industry – even Garmon’s own previous products.
