Recipe % (o.w.f.) to Grams Calculator
Chemical quantity to weigh from a recipe percentage on weight of fabric.
Chemical to weigh
6,000g
Chemical to weigh
6kg
The formula
Grams = fabric (kg) x recipe % x 10. 2% o.w.f. on 300 kg = 6000 g.
Worked example
Fabric weight: 300 kg, Recipe: 2 % o.w.f.. Result: Chemical to weigh = 6,000 g; Chemical to weigh = 6 kg.
Assumptions
- o.w.f. percentage; g/L dosing is the salt-and-soda calculator instead.

Intelactory links each dye batch to its recipe, chemical lots and the fabric rolls it produced, so a shade problem traces back in one step.
