Every plant can be used to make dye. Natural dyes being natural tend to be softer and their range of tones is very pleasant. The
term "dyes" refers to compounds that can be used to add color to many things, including paper, textiles, and food. In general, a dye is a coloured substance that has an affinity for the substrate to which it is applied. A notable trend in recent years has been the adoption of eco-friendly and sustainable products in a variety of industries, such as food, textiles, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Growing public awareness of environmental issues and a growing desire for natural and organic products are the driving forces behind this movement. The most often employed herbal elements for dye extraction include stems, barks, roots, berries, leaves, flowers, and seeds. Depending on which portion of the plant is used, some components may have many colors. These colors are due to the presence of different types of chemical compounds present in herbal plants like tannins, flavonoids, alkaloids, anthraquinone, glycosides, iso coumarins, catechin, rutin, saponin, carotene, etc. There are various benefits of natural dyes in human life and it is also eco-friendly.
