Founded in 2005 as a spin-off from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH), HeiQ is a leader in textile innovation, creating some of the most effective, durable and high-performance textile technologies in the market.
HeiQ – pronounced [’ haikju] – stands for the “hike” on which Carlo Centonze and Dr. Murray Height, the two company founders, came up with the HeiQ idea. “HeiQ” also stands for High Quality Materials and for IQ – intelligent materials. The two founders met at ETH and became friends. On a hike in the Swiss mountains, after five days their companions started keeping their distance because of the two friends’ smelly outdoor clothes. This was the inspirational kick the two entrepreneurs needed for developing a new textile odor control technology, HeiQ Fresh, and founding the company HeiQ. Today, HeiQ Fresh is used on more than 500 million garments worldwide, by world-renowned brands like Patagonia, Burton, Hanes, New Balance, Odlo and Mammut.
HeiQ is driven by the spirit of innovation and over years continued to develop new products and textile technologies. HeiQ’s goal is to improve the lives of billions of people by perfecting an everyday product: Textiles. Combining three areas of expertise – scientific research, specialty materials manufacturing and consumer ingredient branding – HeiQ helps partners brands to innovate and create differentiating and sustainable textile products.
