Paptex Textilhandels GmbH is an Austrian home textiles company based in Dornbirn, Vorarlberg. It operates the retail brand Mary Rose, selling bedding, home textiles, and related products through its online shop. The company's history is closely tied to its managing director, Stefan, whose childhood in Dornbirn—then a textile stronghold—shaped his awareness of environmental issues in textile production. According to the company's "Unsere Story" page, Stefan witnessed untreated production wastewater being discharged into the Dornbirner Ache, which he found questionable even then. A photo caption on the page shows Stefan with his grandfather in 1975, indicating a family connection to the textile industry dating back at least to that period. Over the years, Stefan became increasingly concerned about the environmental impact of conventional textile production and decided to take a different path. The company now positions itself as a provider of sustainable home textiles, offering products that are not only organic but safe for the biological cycle. Some products are Cradle to Cradle Certified® Gold and vegan. The company is a member of the Fair Wear Foundation and offers B2B and hotel services, down cleaning, custom-made products, and embroidery. The online shop serves customers in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland, offering regional sizing and a range of certified organic and vegan home textiles. The website features weekly specials, customer favorites, and seasonal promotions. While the exact founding year of Paptex Textilhandels GmbH is not stated in the available evidence, the company is active and privately held.
