ARE YOUR FEET READY FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT?
At Colltex, community is woven into every fibre of their innovation. As the original inventors of the adhesive ski skin, they’ve spent decades refining their craft alongside ski tourers, mountain guides, and athletes across the Alps.
Crafted in Glarus, Switzerland, and built on real alpine experience and continuous feedback from the field, Colltex skins are trusted for their precision, performance, and reliability — earning the brand deep respect among backcountry professionals and enthusiasts worldwide.
COLLTEX DRYBASE
Colltex Drybase seals the hollow spaces in the backing layer to help block moisture. The result – greater torsional stability, increased strength, and skins that stay dry and lightweight… even in warm snow conditions.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP
In 1990, Colltex transitioned to a pollutant-free hotmelt adhesive. Since 2019, the company has used environmentally friendly wax to waterproof its climbing skins, and in 2020 Colltex committed to only using Fluor-free materials.

SKING THE MOUNTAIN
Our commitment to high‑quality ski skins begins with weaving the yarn and continues through every stage of production. We seal the back with Colltex Drybase to keep the skins light and dry, reinforce the edges with Colltex Edge to prevent fraying, and use our proven Hotmelt adhesive for secure grip. We also reduce CO₂ by producing locally to minimize transport, sourcing nearly all materials from Switzerland, Germany, and Belgium, and manufacturing to order to minimize waste.
