Seacell (DK)

Seacell er et 100% naturligt materiale der udelukkende er produceret af bæredygtigt træ og tang som begge er fornybare ressourcer. Metoden som bruges til at fremstille Seacell er den samme som anvendes ved tencel. Denne proces er både miljøvenlig og innovativ. Desuden sikrer denne proces at der ikke er nogen kemikalier som udvindes som spild.

Materialet indeholder flere mineraler og vitaminer end noget andet naturligt materiale. Herunder blandt andet vitamin E og aminosyre. Udover at Seacell er lavet af fornybare materialer og er bæredygtigt, så er det også særdeles blødt og komfortabelt at bære.

Seacell kan anvendes til mange forskellige tekstiler herunder f.eks. undertøj, sportstøj og hverdagstøj.

Fordele:

• Komfortabelt og blødt materiale
• Energibesparende og bæredygtige processer
• Fornybare ressourcer
• Beskytter huden

Ulemper:

• Kan variere hvor meget tang Seacell indeholder

Seacell (ENG)
Seacell is 100% natural material which is solely produced of sustainable wood and seaweed. Both materials are renewable resources. The method in which are used to produce Seacell is the same as for Tencel. This process is both environment friendly and innovative. Furthermore, the process ensures no chemicals are released as waste. Seacell contains more minerals and vitamins than any other natural material. This include vitamins and amino acids.

Beside Seacell is made from renewable resources, its particularly soft and comfortable.

Seacell can be used in many different textiles for example underwear, sportswear and fashion.

Pros:

• Comfortable and soft
• Energy saving and sustainable process
• Renewable resources
• Protects the skin

Cons:

• Unsure how much seaweed Seacell contains

Organic Cotton (natural fiber)

The reason we use organic cotton instead of conventional cotton is quite simple; It’s better for you and for the planet. Of course the farming and process requires more knowledge and observation, and is far more expensive and complicated than the production of conventional cotton, but opposite conventional cotton that uses roughly 7% of the worlds pesticides and 16% of the worlds insecticides, organic cotton uses none!

Pros :

• 71% less water is used in the production compared to conventional cotton
• No toxic chemicals used on the field where the cotton grows
• The cotton-farmers aren’t exposed to any kind of chemicals
• It’s better for the planet and for you

Cons :

• It’s more expensive compared to production of conventional cotton
• It still needs a lot of water to grow the cotton

Active ingredients from sea to skin

The unique properties of seaweed help to protect our skin against the harmful environmental influences which we are exposed to in our daily lives. The seaweed is pure and rich in essential substances such as vitamins, trace elements, amino acids and minerals.

The substances found in seaweed help to activate cell regeneration, which in turn can help to relieve skin diseases, reduce inflammation and soothe itchiness. Its high level of antioxidants protects the skin against harmful free radicals, which damage our skin cells.

The natural moisture level of the skin enables an active exchange of those beneficial substances between the fiber and the skin, providing a noticeable sense of wellbeing.

A patented high-tech process that guarantees long-lasting quality

SeaCell™ is produced using the Lyocell process, an innovative and eco-friendly production method. Production takes place in a closed loop with no chemicals released as waste. This meets the expectations of our industry both today and in the future. It is one reason why the European Union awarded the procedure with the 2000 European Environmental Award in the category “technology for sustainable development”.

The high tech fibers are produced exclusively for smartfiber AG on modern fiber production plants at Lenzing AG in Austria. A highly specialized team of engineers and scientists supervises the production process on site.

The patented process embeds the seaweed firmly within a natural cellulose fiber. As a result, the positive properties of the seaweed are permanently preserved within the fiber, even after multiple washing cycles.

Added value for a wide range of applications

If you are looking for an environmentally sound fiber that offers maximum comfort together with benefits for both mind and body, SeaCell™ is the natural choice.

The fiber is suitable for a vast range of applications, from sport and fashion clothing, underwear and loungewear to home textiles, and combines easily with any other fiber.

It adds a smooth, silky feel to any fabric, together with the comfort and care elements required from a generation with an active, health-conscious lifestyle.

From nature to fabric

In response to the increasingly harmful impacts of our environment, and after years of intensive research, smartfiber AG has succeeded in developing SeaCell™, a fiber made from renewable resources.

The fiber is produced exclusively from sustainable raw materials – wood and seaweed – using methods that save both energy and resources. The fiber is carbon neutral and completely biodegradable.

Harvesting of the seaweed is a gentle, selective and, most importantly, sustainable process. It removes only the part of the seaweed that is able to regenerate. The seaweed is entirely untreated and all its ecological value is retained.
