It is possible that Cissi och Selma uses other fibres in their products. The company primarily relies on natural fibres, such as (organic) cotton or viscose. If you’re interested in the benefits of organic cotton, read our fascinating article. Synthetic fibres, like elastane or recycled polyester, are not biodegradable and can release microplastics. You can read more about how sustainable recycled polyester is here.
