About Dropel

Everybody loves cashmere, but no one loves the difficulty of keeping it clean and soft. We’re creating a new category of Cashmere. We call it “performance cashmere.” We’re reinventing your new favorite t-shirt. Our technology enables cashmere to be water-repellent, machine-washable, and durable. It even gets softer with every wash.

Ultra-soft, water-repellent, and machine washable.

Cashmere 2.0

We are Dropel.

Dropellabs

Dropellabs™ is creating the world’s first sustainable performance cashmere. Made by Dropel Fabrics, Dropellabs is the company’s consumer platform to begin the broader conversation about the design and innovation available with textile technologies.

The goal is to harness the power of the world’s softest materials, design and technology to create products that allow us to rediscover our favorite fabrics and pieces, to make them better for longer.

Performance natural materials open up new possibilities in design and manufacturing not possible without material science and textile technologies.
