SeaCell™: Seaweed Fibers with a Positive Effect on the Skin

SeaCell™ is an environmentally friendly fiber that is hugely comfortable to wear and has a positive effect on the skin. It stands for health, sustainability, and an environmentally friendly lifestyle. SeaCell™ fibers contain finely ground Icelandic seaweed from a unique ecosystem. This seaweed is rich in minerals and trace elements. With its high level of antioxidants, it protects the skin from environmental influences. SeaCell™ enables an active exchange of substances between the fiber and the skin, thus ensuring a lasting feel-good effect for users. Incorporating SeaCell™ fibers makes the textiles soft to the touch and gives them a fluffy, silky feel. Wearing SeaCell™ textiles ensures a fantastic feeling against the skin. They offer comfort and care thanks to the seaweed’s calming effect on the skin. As a result, SeaCell™ fibers can be found in textiles from well-known brands.

smartcel™ sensitive: Zinc Fibers Protect and Care for the Skin

These properties are fantastic for people with sensitive skin or skin diseases. Zinc oxide also offers antibacterial and odor-eliminating properties, keeping the textiles feeling fresh for extended periods of time.* smartcel™ sensitive is environmentally friendly, resource friendly and 100% biodegradable. The fiber is hugely comfortable to wear and is the perfect choice for anyone looking for textiles that will care for and be kind to their skin.
