DEAP, A CARESS FOR YOUR SKIN!
The greatest forces are to be found in nature. When the power of seaweed meets cellulose, the result is a sustainable and eco-friendly textile fibre, developed from 100% natural resources and guaranteed zero waste, thanks to a biological and biodegradable solvent, which is 100% recyclable. The properties of seaweed are thus preserved at the core of the fibre, washing after washing.
ALGAE, A RENEWABLE NATURAL RESOURCE
Seaweed is an eco-responsible raw material par excellence. No use of agricultural land, no use of drinking water, no use of fertilisers and pesticides, the algae culture draws on its natural defences thanks to marine microorganisms, that are 100% vegetable and biodegradable.
The algae are collected once every four years. We cut only the upper part, which allows it to regenerate.
We use a mixture of Fucus Vesiculosus and Ascophyllum Nodosum
These brown algae are cultivated and harvested according to the seasons, in responsible seaweed farms off the Icelandic coast. A unique place where the purity of the water is preserved through natural filtering by volcanic rocks underwater.
The harvested seaweed leaves are dried in the open air, coarsely chopped to a powder and then used in the manufacture of the fibres, without any chemical treatment. The entire process is 100% sustainable and environmentally friendly.
EXTRAORDINARY VIRTUES
Seaweed is full of valuable active nutrients, rich in minerals, trace elements, vitamin E, calcium and magnesium, exceptionally effective, which act on the skin in several ways. These properties calm and protect the epidermis, significantly reduce inflammation, eliminate free radicals thus fighting against cell ageing. Seaweed also has hypoallergenic and anti-inflammatory properties. Their healing power has notably led to the development of medical bandages.
