a Grand Vision

We envision a textile future that is fully recyclable, profoundly resource-efficient, and inherently responsible. Our journey commences with a water-repellent yarn, concluding with a paradigm shift.

Innovation grounded in the highest

technological standards.

Leveraging our profound expertise in textile processes, we delve into new yarn compositions through research and experimentation. Our objective is to engineer water-repellent materials – entirely free from traditional chemicals and designed as a single-component material – enabling a truly circular economy.

New technologies.

TEXTERIAL experiments and uses new technologies. We look for new innovative technology solutions. We take a different approach.

circularity.

TEXTERIAL is fit for the future. We offer a circular solution. Anything else would be nonsense. We achieve this through mono-materiality.

re:design.

There are already so many great raw materials available. We are rethinking them, giving them a new form and a new function. And retain the good things.

Our technology enables water-repellent properties to be achieved at the filament level – without the use of fluoropolymers, impregnations or other additives.

Our idea has great potential.

And lucky enough we are not the only ones who believe in it.

Why do I believe in PREDROP?
‍
The lotus effect has already been copied from nature and works excellently, but unfortunately it is too sensitive for clothing textiles. The structure that the TEXTERIAL team is working on, which is also copied from nature, seems to me to be much more resistant and therefore more suitable for use.
