DePoly, a Swiss cleantech firm, has secured CHF 50 million in funding and is moving toward the operational phase of its showcase plant in Valais, Switzerland, expected to launch in the first half of 2026. The company's unique low-energy depolymerisation process converts PET plastics and polyester fabrics into virgin-quality materials, overcoming limitations of traditional recycling methods.
Supported by industry leaders like BASF and Beiersdorf, DePoly's transition from a Climate KIC graduate to an Una Terra portfolio company illustrates the impact of early-stage investment and technical support. This model signals a growing demand for innovative solutions in the circular economy and highlights the potential for large-scale implementation of sustainable practices.
