Linen is a completely natural woven fabric made from the flax plant. Flax fibers are extremely durable and when woven into Linen, become extremely strong. Known to be the world's strongest natural fiber, Linen lasts a very long time and will never lose its shape. New Linen has a slight crispiness to it, but with time and use it becomes buttery soft.

Linen is highly recommended for children and adults due to its non-allergic features and great microclimate for skin. Linen is amazingly suitable for hot Summer climates because of its cooling and refreshing effect. On the other hand, it has a warming effect in Winter. Flax absorbs sudden temperature changes and has outstanding moisture absorbance. Linen also reduces radiation impact by half and protects from harmful ultraviolet radiation.

* Linen is naturally stain resistant, does not pile, and is moth repellent.

* •It is easy to wash as it can sustain high temperatures, is has very little if no shrinkage and is very strong.

* •It is anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, hypo allergenic and thermoregulating, it will also absorb up 20%  moisture before feeling damp.

* •As the linen fibres have low elasticity (which causes it to crease) it will wear in any areas that are repeatedly folded in the same place for a long time, however it does have much better abrasion resistance than say cotton.

* Eco Credentials:

* •Flax is a strong plant deals best grown in northern Europe.

* •It needs little or no fertilisers and due to the local climate, little extra water.

* •It doesn't require pesticides

* •The Advisory Commission Report to the European Parliament stated that flax cultivation has positive effects on eco-system diversity as it allows for an “environmental pause”.

* •One hectare of flax can retain 3.7 tonnes of CO2.

* •Every part of the plant is used, what isn't used to produce linen can be used to make linseed oil, paper, cattle feed or even soap.

* •Linen is therefore almost naturally organic.

* •It is completely biodegradable, recyclable and due to its natural absorbency, it requires less dye than cotton.

* •Linen scores high on the ecological chart.
