Perfect for anyone who has sensitive skin as this fabric facilitates the exchange of the nutrients naturally found in seaweed. (The idea to incorporate seaweed into textiles was inspired by its health promoting nature. The fiber that resulted from this idea was Seacell - a cellulosic fiber with incorporated active substances of seaweed. First, a cellulose based fiber is produced using the eco-friendly Lyocell process. The resulting fiber then serves as the supporting material for the seaweed. ) Calcium, magnesium, amino acids and vitamins are released by body moisture when the fabric is worn. Sea-Tiva fabrics are also breathable and soft. Here are the care tips for Sea-Tiva Cotton: · Hand wash or dry clean · Line dry· Warm iron if necessary · Only non-chlorine bleach when needed
