Linen

What is Linen?
With its characteristic smoothness and breathability, linen provides a luxurious feel and a refined appearance in any project. Linen fabrics are made from the fibers of the flax plant, resulting in a durable, absorbent, and naturally hypoallergenic linen weave. It is known for its ability to absorb moisture and dry quickly, making it ideal for warm and humid environments. Moreover, linen becomes softer and more pliable with wear and washing, making it a favorite material for everyday use. At Verhees Textiles, we offer many linen blends, such as mixes with viscose, cotton, or Sorona. Each quality has its unique properties, with the natural look of the fabric’s structure being well represented in many blends. Alongside a wide variety of basic linen qualities, Verhees Textiles also has an extensive range of fashion fabrics with linen (including embroidery).

Characteristics of Linen Fabrics:

• Linen fabrics are made from a natural fiber called flax.
• Linen is strong, making it resistant to long-term use.
• Linen has high breathability and is naturally hypoallergenic.
• Linen does not pill, shed, or become static.

Linen: The Ideal Quality for Summer Clothing
Linen fabrics are renowned for their versatility and timeless elegance. They are often used in clothing, bedding, and home decor due to their natural fibers and refined look. Linen’s breathability makes it ideal for summer garments, frequently used for linen shirts, trousers, and dresses due to its cooling effect and comfortable wear. Linen has also been used for bedding for centuries due to its durability, breathability, and comfort. Linen sheets, duvet covers, and pillowcases offer a luxurious sleeping experience, especially in warm climates, thanks to the material’s natural heat and moisture-regulating properties.

Article 03803 Sorona Linen contains patented Sorona fibers, giving this luxurious linen blend its stretch without needing elastane, making the fabric much more wrinkle-resistant.
