Tamara Djurickovic 2 hours ago Share Share Send email Copy link Syntetica , a deeptech company developing recycling technology for complex textile waste, has raised $30 million in a Series A funding round to scale its nylon recycling platform and bring its technology to industrial production.

The round was led by the Ecotechnologies 2 fund, managed on behalf of the French government by Bpifrance, with participation from SWEN Capital Partners, lululemon, MAS Holdings, existing investor EQT Ventures, and the family offices of Peugeot, Etam and Indorama Venture's largest shareholder. The company also received support from public institutions, including Bpifrance and the European Innovation Council. Founded by Marco Bertone and Louis Monsigny , Syntetica has developed a patented process capable of recycling both Nylon 6 and Nylon 6,6 from mixed textile waste in a single process.

By eliminating the need to separate different nylon types before recycling, the technology addresses one of the industry's key technical barriers to recovering valuable materials from post-consumer textile waste. The company is already working with brands including Victoria's Secret and Etam, alongside a growing number of global apparel companies, as demand for circular materials continues to increase. Unlike conventional recycling technologies that primarily process clean manufacturing waste, Syntetica's platform is designed to recover materials from post-consumer textiles, which account for the majority of textile waste.
