Texeler was founded in 1984 by Texelaar Dick Graaf. He was inspired by an old lady from Oudeschild who made homemade sheep wool blankets for rheumatists and diabetic patients. He bought the process from her and started making blankets. Four years later, Martijn joined his service. "I had been an apprentice engineer on the seaboard and just six months at sea when the ship on which I was sailing went to the basement. The crew had opened the ballast tanks in the middle of the Channel again in the middle of the windy season."<br>Without pay or benefit, Martijn decided to enter the blanket factory, as Texelaars called Graaf's company (and still call it). "It was still in a small pawn shop at the orphanage in Den Burg. I could start sweeping right away, the next day I got behind one of the machines. In the years after that, I went through the whole company."<br>
