Archroma and HeiQ have announced a new co-marketing agreement aimed at expanding access to sustainable anti-odor and antimicrobial technologies across the global textile industry. The partnership brings together Archroma’s worldwide reach and application expertise with HeiQ’s deeptech-driven material solutions, offering brands and manufacturers a broader range of functional and environmentally conscious textile effects.
Under the agreement, brands, retailers, and textile mills will be able to access an expanded portfolio of performance technologies designed to address everyday needs such as hygiene and freshness, while supporting lower environmental impact. The collaboration focuses on practical, scalable solutions that can be integrated into existing production processes.
“This partnership marks an exciting chapter for Archroma and HeiQ, and a huge step forward for the textile industry,” said Dhirendra Gautam, Vice President Commercial at Archroma. He highlighted that combining Archroma’s global network and application know-how with HeiQ’s technology development capabilities will help bring sustainable performance solutions to more customers worldwide.
HeiQ CEO Carlo Centonze echoed this view, pointing to the shared focus on responsible innovation. He noted that working with Archroma allows HeiQ to scale its technologies more effectively, giving brands and mills easier access to functional solutions that improve product performance while reducing environmental impact.
A key strength of the collaboration lies in delivery. HeiQ’s technologies will be made available through Archroma’s established customer network, simplifying adoption for textile manufacturers seeking compliant and sustainable performance finishes. This approach supports faster market uptake without adding complexity for mills or brands.
Beyond commercial reach, the partnership is also about supporting industry expectations. As consumers continue to look for textiles that stay fresh, perform well, and align with sustainability goals, Archroma and HeiQ aim to help manufacturers meet these demands with reliable, proven solutions.
