SUSTAINABILITY
RAW MATERIALS Flax is a renewable resource that is fast growing, coming close to the organic standard without even trying. Few chemical pesticides and fertilizers are required in its cultivation (significantly less than cotton, in fact).
MANUFACTURING The Linen Collection is produced with the integrated concept of total sustainability. Made with state-of- the-art machinery, it’s produced using either wind or solar energy. The factory features high-tech, spot controlled, LED lighting. And all chemicals used in the manufacture are approved by the European Chemical Reach Regulations.
And flax doesn’t need a huge amount of water, it can often be fed by rainfall alone.
WORKFORCE The facility in the Netherlands that produces the Linen Collection values its skilled workers: All employees work a full-time day shift, no overnights. Much of the production is automated, avoiding any backbreaking manual labor. Ethical manufacturing a key component of sustainable design.
Environmentally friendly production is about more than just the what. In this case, natural linen is also the who, where and how.
