Soft, light, comfortable, breathable, natural and sustainable... so perfect for relaxed happy living days.
There are many more impressive reasons to love Linen. Here we reveal the most fascinating benefits and outstanding facts about Linen, a timeless fabric.
ECO-FRIENDLY
Flax is an incredibly sustainable plant – it grows naturally without a need for fertilizers or pesticides.
It is a renewable resource, one that is fast growing and can be produced without damaging the environment.
BREATHABLE
Hollow core of flax fibers and loose weaving allow air to flow easily through linen fabric, ensuring your body to breathe and creating the best microclimate for our skin.
Linen easily wicks moisture and keeps the body comfortable even in hot temperatures.
Hollow fibers also ensure linen has good thermoregulation properties. In cold weather, surprisingly, linen also retains warmth.
Linen will cool you down when you feel hot and keep you warmer when the temperature drops – no wonder it’s called “Second Skin”.
DURABLE
Linen can last for 20 years without losing its comfort!
Known as the world’s second strongest natural fiber (after silk), linen is 3 times stronger and 5 times more durable than cotton.
Instead of losing it’s quality, linen improves with time – the more it is washed, the softer it gets!
This is an incredible advantage of linen - you can enjoy your favorite linen garment for many years!
GREAT ABSORBENT & QUICK DRYING
Linen can absorb up to 20% of its weight in moisture and still feel dry.
Linen fabric absorbs water and dries so quick, that it can absorb sweat without feeling unpleasantly damp to the skin and without the garment sticking to the body.
This is why linen is perfect for hot climates or during the summer - it keeps you cool and feeling dry!
HYPOALLERGENIC
Linen is anti-allergenic and antistatic, highly recommended for people with sensitive skin and widely used to help people with skin problems.
Linen is absolutely the best choice for babies and young children.
Linen is anti-bacterial and fungicidal – it absorbs moisture without holding bacteria - neutralizes bad odors of your clothes, so it will require less frequent washing.
The less often you wash your clothes, the longer they will last, the more sustainable your attire will be.
EASY TO CARE FOR
You may think linen is a high-maintenance fabric, but linen is an incredibly easy fabric to care for.
The more you wash it, the softer it becomes!
We do not encourage ironing linen, since we believe that natural wrinkles and creases give an authentic character to linen. Casual linen clothing may even look slightly better a bit wrinkled and can be worn with pride!
If you wish a perfect crispy look, best results can be achieved by ironing linen while still slightly damp.
