Organic Chemistry Intern

Ever Dye is a startup based in Paris, working on developing a dyeing process using an innovative bio-based pigment, made of vegetal and minerals, for the têxtile industry. Our process boosts dye houses production capacities as it allows them to dye 5x faster with 15x less energy and without using any petrochemicals in the dyeing process. Thus, we're reducing by more than 80% GHG emissions of one of the most polluting processes in the world. Our ambition is to become a reference in the têxtile industry by providing beautiful and meaningful colors that will clean an industry that emits more than 400 Megatons of CO2 every year.
