Turning Down the Noise: Loop Earplugs Secures $1.1M Seed Round to Revolutionize Hearing Protection

We are thrilled to announce that Loop Earplugs has successfully raised €1,100,000 in our latest funding round—a major milestone that marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter in our journey. Our story began when founders Maarten and Dimitri, after experiencing ringing ears following a night out, discovered that the issue was far more widespread, affecting nearly 1 in 4 adults. This insight sparked the inception of Loop, giving us the mission to revolutionize how earplugs look, feel, and sound. Today, Loop is not just a brand; it’s a movement that empowers people to experience hearing protection in style and live life at their own volume, whether at concerts, social gatherings, or in everyday settings. Based in Antwerp and bolstered by our dynamic offices in Amsterdam, New York, and Shanghai, our vibrant team of over 250 dedicated professionals is committed to innovation and design excellence. The fresh capital will allow us to accelerate research and development efforts, expand our product lines, and further enhance our global reach. With a focus on creating ergonomic designs that blend seamlessly into everyday life without compromising on performance, the investment underscores the confidence our supporters have in our vision. This funding round not only validates our original idea but also strengthens our commitment to improving hearing protection while pushing the boundaries of what earplugs can be. As we embark on this next phase of growth, we remain dedicated to ensuring that everyone, no matter their lifestyle, can enjoy quality hearing protection without sacrificing comfort or style. We are excited for what the future holds and look forward to sharing more updates as we continue to redefine the earplug experience worldwide.
