The technology will be used in denim processing, garment finishing and garment dyeing processes in Yilmak's garment finishing machines. Yilmak is a Turkish manufacturer of garment finishing machines.

"The agreement allows Xeros to significantly increase its market access into new territories including Europe, Brazil and Mexico as well as strengthen its current access into Asia," Xeros explains, adding it has the potential to deliver "substantial" revenue over the 10-year term.
