100% linen. At Lottie Lane we care about ensuring our environmental impact is as small as possible whilst creating lovely things. That’s why we love linen, and here’s why you should too...
-
The durability of linen means it lasts longer than other materials. Even when linen does reach the end of its life, it doesn’t need to rot in a landfill. As a natural fibre, it’s fully compostable.
-
Flax creates very little waste. Other parts of the plant, like the seeds, can be used to produce linseed oil or flax seeds for consumption.
-
Flax grows naturally and requires no additional water other than rainwater
-
Linen yarn is inherently strong, which reduces the need for starching during spinning and weaving.
-
Flax cultivation has positive effects on eco-system diversity as it allows for an “environmental pause”. One hectare of flax can retain 3.7 tonnes of CO2.
-
Machine washable at max 30°C.
