CLIMATEX is advancing circular materials and modular textile design solutions to eliminate textile waste and enable fully recyclable high-performance fabrics for global apparel and interior textile markets.
CLIMATEX AG, a Swiss textile technology company focused on circular textile technologies and patented solutions, has closed a €3.5 million (CHF 3.2 million) financing round led by the Collateral Good Textile & Fashion Innovation Fund, with participation from existing investors.
CLIMATEX develops advanced material and construction technologies designed to enable circularity across the apparel and interior textiles industry. Its core objective is to eliminate textile waste by creating high-performance fabrics and product architectures that can be fully separated and recycled at the end of life.
By combining functionality, sustainability, and design for disassembly, the company supports the transition toward a scalable circular textile economy.
The company has built a broad portfolio of patented, recyclable textile solutions and emphasises proprietary fabric systems engineered to recover complex, multi-material products within closed material loops.
The company works with international clients, operates at Technology Readiness Level 8, participates in multiple EU and Swiss circularity research projects, and has recently filed two additional patents covering next-generation textile technologies.
Following the financing round, CLIMATEX also announced the appointment of Camilla Skjønning Jørgensen as CEO-designate.
Commenting on the company’s positioning, Camilla Skjønning Jørgensen said CLIMATEX is targeting a distinct system-level opportunity within the textile industry:
By rethinking textile construction at the product design stage, the technology enables high-quality, durable products that are also designed for disassembly and recycling from the outset.
As part of the leadership transition, current Co-CEOs Adrian Obrist and Patric Rupp will remain shareholders and board members.
The newly raised capital will be used to strengthen sales and marketing activities as CLIMATEX’s technologies, products, and market adoption enter a growth phase.
