Although the presence of widely available and cheaper synthetic dyes almost substituted the use of natural dyes, the use of natural dyes for dyeing textile materials has now become a greater interest because they are more ecofriendly than synthetic dye. There is awareness amongst consumers and the textile industry for the need to reinvert natural dyes to impart colour to textiles. Lichens have been the source for natural dyes to colour textiles in many parts of the world. In Malaysia, studies on lichens have so far focused on their distribution, chemistry and biological activities and there is no exact reference on textile dyes. Extraction of colour component from source natural dye material is important step for dyeing any textile substrates to maximize the colour yield. In this study, to explore the colouring potential of local lichen species, silk fabric, which is a very good base for natural dyes, was dyed with lichen dyes produced using different extraction methods.
