Keel Labs

Keel Labs develops drop-in biobased and sustainable fibers and yarns made from seaweed biopolymers.

Keel Labs is revolutionizing the textile industry by creating sustainable, biobased materials from seaweed.

Their flagship product, Kelsun™, is a USDA-certified biopolymer fiber derived from seaweed (alginate), a regenerative resource that absorbs CO2 and requires no arable land, pesticides, or fertilizers.

Designed as a drop-in solution, Kelsun seamlessly integrates into existing textile production processes, offering a renewable, petroleum-free alternative with a significantly lower environmental footprint.

Founded on the principles of natural efficiency and circularity, Keel Labs aims to transform material science and reduce the climate impact of textiles while advancing a sustainable future.
