MM Matters: Benefits of linen to the planet and your health
While the luxuriant softness of nature's wonder fibre is enough to have us sleeping soundly, linen has your health and that of the environment at heart too, making that slumber even sweeter.
Here, we look at how linen loves the planet as much as it loves you.
Naturally breathable, naturally hypoallergenic, naturally antibacterial. Need we say more?
Ok, we have more!
Lovingly considerate, linen is biodegradable in a true circular fashion.
Being wasteful is not in its friendly nature with almost all of the flax plant used in manufacturing.
To grow flax is light on water and usually, rainwater is enough.
For perspective, cotton uses roughly 400 times more water than linen in manufacturing.
Incredibly hardy, linen plants can be grown anywhere and use fewer pesticides to thrive
- they are even known to improve soil quality, continuing to give back.
