Organic Linen Table Cloth - Flax
Organic Linen Table Cloth - Flax
This table cloth is made of flax grown organically in France, woven at a CO2-neutral mill in Belgium, and sewn into a table cloth at a social enterprise in London.
Flax is generally considered a sustainable fibre, as its cultivation requires fewer chemicals than cotton and little or no irrigation. However, fewer chemicals does not mean no chemicals and flax is typically grown using an array of fungicides, herbicides and petroleum-based fertilisers.
In contrast to most linen table cloths on the market, the flax in ours has been grown organically, which means no chemicals have been used, creating a more wildlife-friendly farm. Organic flax currently accounts for only 1% of global flax production and is grown by a handful of pioneering farms in France. We visited some of these farms in 2018. You can read about our visit to them here.
