Change The Way You Travel

We are inspired by our travels and exploring new places through a unique lens. Merutek was founded on one core principal which is traveling light. We design ultra lightweight travel gear that can easily fit in your carry-on. It is our passion to produce high quality products that are minimalist in design but essential to your packing list. Stylish but still practical. We want to optimize your travel experience with products that allow room for other essentials. Giving you more time to immerse yourself into the travel experience.

Founded in Austin, Texas in 2018 – Merutek was born out of many years of traveling to various beaches for family vacations. Over time it became apparent how much time and energy was wasted on packing and unpacking. We began to realize that a towel, a chair, and some sunscreen is all we really needed. We decided we could do without the bulk and got to work designing options to simplify our adventures. With more free time, we were able to enjoy the sand at our feet and sun in our face.

Traveling light is really where it is at, each of our products is designed with these intricate details in mind. Everything down to the measurements, size, and weight of our Turkish Towels were carefully planned to give you the right amount of surface area on the towel without compromising space in your carry-on.

Likewise, our Ultra Lightweight Portable Chairs pack down to the size of a water bottle and weigh in at only 2 lbs!

Portability is at the forefront of each and every product. We believe the right equipment can elevate your travel experience, but it doesn’t have to weigh you down.
