Turtl Project is a sustainable watersports apparel startup founded in 2020 in the United States. The company is dedicated to revolutionizing the watersports gear industry by prioritizing sustainability. Their flagship product, the Galapagos wetsuit, is made from limestone-based neoprene, significantly reducing CO2 emissions and preventing the shedding of harmful microplastics into the ocean.
Turtl Project's mission goes beyond creating eco-friendly products; they also conduct beach and ocean cleanups to protect marine life and promote ocean health. Additionally, the company's business model is built on supporting ocean conservation initiatives by funding the removal of 2 pounds of ocean plastic with each purchase.
In August 2021, Turtl Project secured a €111.71K equity crowdfunding investment, demonstrating investors' confidence in the company's mission-driven approach and innovative, sustainable products. As a for-profit organization, Turtl Project strives to harness the power of capitalism to drive positive environmental change, offering high-performance, affordable gear that supports a more sustainable future.
With a strong focus on promoting environmental sustainability while providing functional and affordable products, Turtl Project invites enthusiasts to join their mission of enjoying watersports sustainably and preserving the oceans for future generations. As they continue to grow, their commitment to sustainability and innovation positions them as a significant player in the intersection of manufacturing, retail, and apparel industries.
