Carbon neutral fabric production
From fiber to fabric: 100% renewable energy is used for our fabric manufacturing (a mix
of solar & wind energy)
Our fabric manufacturing process is carbon neutral which accounts for
58% less carbon footprint compared to conventional linen fabric manufacturing*, 63% less carbon footprint compared to industry average value chain.
Very limited use of water & chemicals
From flax to fiber: Our linen is cultivated in the region between Northern France and Amsterdam. In contrary to many other natural fibers, flax plant needs no additional irrigation and only grows with rain water. Flax plant needs much less fertilizers and pesticides compared to cotton.
During our linen fabrics’ manufacturing, only natural dew retting practices are adopted for separating fibers from stems whereas chemical retting or water
retting are also used in the industry to speed up the process resulting harmful impact such as water pollution. Natural dew does not use any additional energy, water or chemicals and purely rely on natural decomposition on the soil.

Our raw materials are shipped directly to Istanbul where our garment production takes place. This operation is repeated twice a year via air freight.
