Why flax

The oldest fibre in Egypt — and still the most capable.

A five-thousand-year heritage

Flax was cultivated extensively in ancient Egypt, where temple walls carried paintings of flowering flax and mummies were entombed in linen. Egyptian priests wore only linen, as flax was considered a symbol of purity. Phoenicians traded Egyptian linen across the Mediterranean, and the Romans used it for their sails.

  • Absorbs humidity and lets the skin breathe
  • Very low elasticity — does not deform over time
  • Does not accumulate static electricity
  • Naturally thermo-regulating
  • Tensile strength twice that of cotton, three times that of wool
