WELCOME TO MYCOTEX
MYCOTEX by NEFFA was founded in 2020 by Aniela Hoitink and Nicoline Van Enter with a focus on developing a mycelium based material for an innovative 3D robotic fashion supply-chain solution. While that chapter forms an important part of our technological foundation and continues through our R&D activities, the company has since evolved significantly. Building on this material expertise, MYCOTEX now operates as one of Europe’s most advanced start-ups in development and supply platforms for mycelium-based materials and their industrial application. Our current focus is on enabling scalable, sustainable material solutions for the interiors, architecture, fashion and footwear sectors, where biological material compounds can be integrated into established manufacturing systems or proprietary robotic 3D manufacturing processes in order to drive meaningful industrial transition to more sustainable solutions.
As a pioneer in mycelium-based material technology and advanced supply chain application, our development platform enables companies, brands and designers to create at scale, cutting-edge bio-based products while significantly reducing environmental impact.
