Seaweed Clothing and Bedding: SeaCell

by Justin Thomas on June 24, 2005

77_6.jpgWant a bit of the ocean in your clothing or in your bed? Seacell is a fabric made out of Lyocell (a 100% wood pulp fiber) and seaweed. The theory is that your skin will absorb nutrients from the seaweed, which is quite mineral- and vitamin-rich. From what I can gather, Seacell incorporates 5% seaweed content. The manufacturer, Zimmer AG, says that the porous, open structure of the Seacell fibers “breath” well and absorb what your skin expels. Seacell is mostly being used in bras and underwear, but it also being used in bedding. REI sells a Seacell travel blanket, for example. Seacell is available from Underwear Options

Hi Andrea!

I sell SeaCell sheets for Private Quarters, a home-based bed and bath linens company. These are amazing sheets! I own several sets. I have a lot of customers who just love, love, love these sheets. They are the softest things I have ever slept on ! And I haven’t used any moisturizer all winter long. I just sold another set just moments ago to a customer . . . for half price. She’s thrilled. I’m thrilled. Gotta love SeaCell. 719-440-7682 Margo
