Building a long term partnership and confidence between the 3 actors, sharing together so as to improve their respective know how and passion for flax and linen have been the keys to develop quality linen fabrics . TOSCO decided to promote this three part partnership. TOSCO now use the TEX NORD brand to promote the quality of the fibers in their linen yarns and fabrics.

 

 

LINETXEA
2018

Linen has always been part of Basque history. In the house - etxea in Basque - linen was used for the sheets of the trousseau transmitted from generation to generation, but also for the most beautiful clothes. The ancestor of Basque linen, the “mante à boeuf”, was also made of linen and protected the animals from parasites while absorbing their perspiration.

LINETXEA chose the linen passionately cultivated by the farmers in Normandy of the cooperative TERRE DE LIN. The longest fibers, the most noble and the softest, are selected to obtain an exceptional yarn.
