Fashion and smelly seaweed may seem like an odd pair but one company in North Carolina is spinning them together - quite literally!
Our guest is Laura Hayes and she is the Senior Strategic Partnerships Manager at Keel Labs.
Keel Labs makes a natural silky yarn that is composed of about 70% kelp! While they are not the first to try to make fashion fibers out of seaweed, when it comes to seaweed usage and natural ingredients, I haven't heard of anyone coming close to their success.
The market seems pretty excited about the product as well. They are VC backed, having raised 13M in a series A and their limited production is already overbooked. Trust that I’ve tried to get my hands on some!
We are going to take a break for the rest of August but we will be back in September with an incredible fall lineup.
