CEO Steffen Gerlach

eeden is a Munster-based German tech startup (founded in 2019) pioneering the chemical recycling of cotton-polysester blended textiles into high-quality raw materials.

Leveraging its breakthrough recycling technology, eeden efficiently separates cellulose from cotton and breaks down polyester into its monomer building blocks. these recovered components can then be transformed into virgin-quality fibres enabling circular, drop-in solutions for the textile industry without compromising performance or production infrastructure.
