Climeworks

Climeworks is an ETH Spin-off company commercializing a patent-pending, highly efficient technology for CO2 capture from ambient air.

Climeworks is a Zurich-based company that was spun out of ETH Zurich by the two founders, Christoph Gebald and Jan Wurzbacher, in 2009. Their products are based on a novel process and filter material that were developed in collaboration with ETH Zurich and the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology (Empa). They aim at commercial demonstration of atmospheric CO2 capture technology by 2015.
