ur mission is to transform food waste into natural, non-toxic pigments that help the textile industry reduce pollution and embrace circularity.

Every year, the textile and fashion industry dyes 90% of its textiles with synthetic chemicals that contaminate rivers and endanger human health. At the same time, billions of kilos of food waste release harmful emissions. Two massive waste streams — both damaging the planet — yet neither part of a circular solution.

LANGA offers a scalable solution to two global problems — food waste and textile pollution — by converting discarded food into natural powder pigments. Our pigments match the durability and color quality of synthetic dyes while eliminating toxic chemicals and reducing CO₂ emissions.
