Founded in 2012 by volunteer warden and coastal enthusiast, Dom Bridges, Haeckels uses the health-giving properties of the sea and proves that natural products are just as effective as chemical-derived alternatives. With their own hand-harvested seaweed as a main ingredient, their products are rich in valuable vitamins, minerals, and amino acids; which provide hydrating, anti-bacterial, skin rebuilding, and anti-inflammatory properties while being all-natural. Haeckels not only gives importance to local Margates coastlines, but also to oceans all around the globe as sustainability has always been a key factor in the brand’s philosophy. They strive to raise awareness about the fragility and huge value of the ocean. The company continues to grow, but its core will always remain the same as it prioritizes craft with the aim of reminding and educating customers of the natural wealth of the sea.
