Schoeller Textil has won recognition for its technical fabrics and smart textile finishing technologies. The company produces an average of over six million meters of performance textiles per year.

Sustainability has always been of great importance at Schoeller. In 1994, it was the first active wear and leisurewear manufacturer to receive the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification. Schoeller also served as one of the founding developers of the bluesign system, which has since become established worldwide.

Innovations include its c_change membrane technology, the world’s first intelligent membrane, as well as the well-known NanoSphere, coldblack and corkshell technologies. 3XDRY Bio and ecorepel Bio, the new PFC-free technologies based on renewable raw materials, were first introduced to customers in 2016.

The company began as Switzerland’s first worsted yarn spinning mill in 1868. That mill would soon launch the very first elastic fabric for the ski industry – or the world’s very first soft shell fabric – under the name skifans. Schoeller’s headquarters include its production facilities that house weaving, dyeing, lamination and coating departments, as well as the state-of-the-art research, development and testing laboratory. Its on-site administrative building is home to the design and sales, IT, marketing and accounting teams.

Schoeller has more than 500 brand partners in 50 countries.
