PlastFormance wins HTGF as lead investor for growth financing round – Internationally pate

Teisendorf, 11 July 2023 – The new material start-up PlastFormance strengthens the foundation for further growth and series production at its production site in Berchtesgardener Land, Bavaria. High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF) is investing in PlastFormance GmbH with its newly launched HTGF IV fund together with ICIG Ventures Holding S.A. and Jobest GmbH.


From e-mobility to fuel cell technology and nuclear medicine – the technologies of the future require the use of sophisticated material technologies. PlastFormance GmbH functionalizes polymers to enable tasks such as thermal management, power generation or radiation protection through injection molded components suitable for large-scale production.


We are pleased that we were able to attract new renowned technology investors for our second round of financing to invest in the sustainable development of our company and the market penetration of our functional materials. Joachim Reinhardt, CEO and Co-Founder of PlastFormance GmbH

The seven-figure investment will be used to drive further growth of the company, scale up production capacity, strengthen the team and promote material development for additional application areas. PlastFormance is already working with customers on application projects. Examples include developing highly electrically conductive injection molded parts for fuel cells or improving the service life of electronic assemblies through optimized thermal management. The high-performance materials can reduce system costs and significantly extend product lifetimes. The first granulates with high thermal conductivity are already available in larger quantities
