As the pioneers of well-being, we select only the highest quality raw materials. Sea Island Cotton - also known as white gold - offers the ultimate feeling of well-being. Read more about this rare cotton here:
1) Sea Island cotton originates in the West Indies, a group of islands in the Caribbean. Where others spend their holidays, this is also the house of cotton. The heavy rains supply irrigation and the minimal temperature differences between day and night the best climate.
2) 110 million cotton bales produced worldwide annually. Only 70 of those bales come from Barbados, and they have now been harvested exclusively for the new Zimmerli of Switzerland collection.
3) Sea Island Cotton is carefully hand-picked. This ensures that only ripe cotton plants are collected and that plant or mineral contamination, which can happen when harvesting with machines, is completely avoided. This also makes the appearance of the final products more even.
4) Our partners cultivate their own local plantations in collaboration with ECCI cotton, the cooperation of local cotton farmers. The entire value creation chain is back, which ensures that quality remains constant and high.
5) You can recognize the 100% authenticity of Sea Island Cotton by the hologram. Only the numbered certificate from the specialized West Indian Sea Island Cotton Association (WISICA) guarantees the 100% authenticity of Sea Island Cotton.
