Natural dyes are currently in demand not only in textile industry but in cosmetics, leather, food and pharmaceuticals. The rich biodiversity of India has provided the large amount of raw materials for natural dye extraction. Natural dyes show better biodegradability and are generally more used to with the environment. They are derived from natural resources; like plants, animals, minerals, and microbes.
