Description

Ravel, a Seattle-based textile recycling startup, announced an oversubscribed $8.2 million seed round on September 17, 2026. One Small Planet led the round with participation from AP Ventures, Overlay Capital, and Lichen Ventures, while existing investors including At One Ventures, Collateral Good, and Betterway Ventures provided follow-on capital. The company's Purification Recycling process targets hard-to-separate blends such as polyester and elastane, returning them to single-material fiber. Ravel will use the capital to commercialize its technology, scale from its Seattle pilot plant, and recruit industry partners.

About

Ravel is a Seattle-based textile-to-textile recycling startup that has developed a Purification Recycling process to turn blended textile waste back into new fiber. The technology can separate hard-to-recycle blends such as polyester and elastane into single-material fiber using non-destructive, low-energy steps. Ravel's core advantage is its feedstock flexibility, allowing it to accept blended waste as-is without costly sorting and shipping. The company aims to produce recycled materials that are cheaper than virgin counterparts while creating a transparent, low-carbon supply chain.
