We’ve been loyal fans of Libeco and their exquisite Belgian linen for a long time now. As one of our esteemed workshop partners offering everything from throws, duvet covers, pillows and pillow cases, linen napkin sets, towels, and bed sheets, there may be nothing this renowned leader in Belgian linen can’t do! Libeco is the epitome of a multi-generational, family-run business, with proven experience producing premium quality linen in Belgium since 1858. While they stand for thoughtful and traditional craftsmanship to produce beautifully resilient linen, their dedication to sustainable processes and environmental certifications is equally as impressive. Discover why Libeco is not only a trusted choice for furniture collaborations with Cisco Home and GRAYN, but also how their linen is the healthier, more sustainable way to accessorize your home.

The Sustainable Beauty Of Flax 

Recognized around the world for being one of the most durable and eco-friendly fibers, linen is made from the flax plant, which naturally grows with minimal harm to the environment. This fast-growing plant also requires no irrigation in the wetter Belgian climate, and since each part of the plant can be used for other purposes like premium nutrition alternatives, industrial linseed oils, and paper products, it leaves zero waste behind. Libeco’s flax is also certified by the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), which mandates a strict adherence to both ethical and sustainable processes. In addition, their organic flax is grown without the use of GMOs, pesticides, or fertilizers, which makes Libeco organic linen a less-toxic material for you and your family. With the Belgian Linen™ label that ensures their textiles are always made from 85% natural flax fibers grown in the EU, and woven in Belgium, Libeco brings nothing short of superior quality to enhance the decor of any room in your home.  

A Commitment To Carbon Neutral

Libeco has been a proud carbon neutral company since 2014, after working with climate solutions provider co2logic to reduce their emissions by one third over a span of two years. Today, they still incorporate green electricity sources like LED lights and solar panels, in addition to optimized waste management processes and an eco-friendly car fleet. They’re dedicated to gentler, but effective bleaching agents, entirely water-based chemicals, and dyes that meet the EU’s high REACH standards for human and environmental protection against harmful chemicals. This kind of careful attention to eco-conscious processes is one of many reasons more sustainably-minded furniture brands like Cisco Home and GRAYN choose Libeco linen for the upholstery in many of their bestselling pieces. The Join Bed from GRAYN, for example, showcases a stunning upholstered headboard as an eye-catching focal point in its sleek, minimalist design. When you opt for the stonewash linen from Libeco, paired with its specifically complementing leather straps, and sustainably-sourced solid oak wood, you’re sure to rest easy in a more comfortable, stylish, and environmentally friendly choice. 

Libeco’s linen pieces are ideal for any season of the year, but their natural earth tones and lightweight feel are especially well-suited for summer months; whether you’re feeling a beach vibe, or just looking for a more minimalist, comfort-first appeal, they’ve got you covered.
