Haeckels
Haeckels is an independent company based out of Margate, UK bringing the benefits of coastal living to daily skincare.
brand facts
- Haeckels was founded in 2012 by Dom Bridges, who wanted to reconnect with fragrance and the natural world that surrounded him in Margate, Kent, England.
- The philosophy of Haeckels is to create natural, beautiful products and make use of some of the 6-7000 tonnes of seaweed that is washed up on Thanet shores.
- Haeckels is driven by trying to solve the waste problem – be that through the use of waste natural resources in their products, or presenting packaging solutions to their community that are fully recyclable or compostable.
- The brand opened its first store in 2013 in Margate followed by immersive spa spaces in Margate (2019) and London (2020).
