MYCOTEX by NEFFA

MYCOTEX by NEFFA is an innovative biomaterial startup founded in 2019, headquartered in The Netherlands. The company has garnered significant attention for its pioneering approach to sustainable fashion through the development of the first next-gen biomaterial suitable for the NEFFA | New Fashion Factory. The culmination of this effort is a ground-breaking automated manufacturing method that allows for custom products made from biomaterials. The use of biomass robotically applied around affordable, configurable, and recyclable 3D moulds is at the core of their production process.

The unique supply chain developed by MYCOTEX by NEFFA offers brands unparalleled design freedom and is underpinned by circular and automation-based principles. This patented process provides B2B customers with unprecedented design flexibility, enabling the creation of silhouettes and textures previously unattainable through traditional manufacturing approaches. Moreover, the focus on biodegradable natural materials serves to eliminate waste and deadstock, contributing to a more sustainable industry landscape.

The recent Seed Round investment at 30 January 2024 attracted significant interest from prominent investors including Capricorn Venture Partners, DOEN Participaties, ROM Utrecht Region, and PDS Ventures. The backing of these reputable investors is indicative of the promise and potential perceived in MYCOTEX by NEFFA's disruptive approach to fashion manufacturing.

In positioning itself as the new manufacturing method alongside traditional cutting and sewing processes, MYCOTEX by NEFFA aims to provide a lean and flexible supply chain with a limited number of stakeholders. This approach creates a local, transparent, and adaptable process that aligns with the evolving demands of the fashion industry.
