Ice Dye Wholesale in Reading, PA
Handmade in York, PA — 50 miles from Reading, PA
Reading was built on making things — from 19th-century iron foundries to the textile mills that earned it the title "Outlet Capital of the World." That manufacturing heritage means Reading's retail community has an instinct for distinguishing handmade domestic product from mass-produced imports. Ice-dyed wholesale apparel speaks directly to this sensibility. Each piece is produced through a labor-intensive process where Procion MX fiber-reactive dyes are applied over filtered ice, left to set for a full day, then rinsed through multiple wash cycles until the water runs clear. The result is a permanent, covalent bond between dye and fiber — not a surface treatment that fades after a few washes.
The revitalization anchored by GoggleWorks Center for the Arts in the old Willson Goggle factory has sparked exactly the kind of creative retail growth that ice-dyed apparel thrives in. Boutiques and maker shops along Penn Street and in the DoubleTree district are building customer bases that value unique, artisan products and understand the difference between genuine craftsmanship and factory-line tie dye. At about 75 minutes from our York studio, Reading-area retailers receive fast ground shipping on wholesale orders, and Reading's position between Lancaster, the Lehigh Valley, and Philadelphia makes it a strategic stocking point for retailers whose customers span eastern Pennsylvania's diverse markets.
