They remain the leading French manufacturer of industrial fabrics in natural materials incl. workwear, mannequin fabrics, boat awnings, kitchen linens and cloth for luggage.  As a weaver for more than a century, Charvet Editions combines experience and innovation, producing a beautiful range of products using the finest pure French flax linen fabrics woven in it's workshops in France.   Due to its biodegradable qualities, linen is favoured by many for its low impact on the environment. We love linen for its crumpled, worn-in feel. It is light weight yet robust and has superior moisture-wicking ability.    One of the strongest fibres in existence, flax naturally resists bacteria and is very hardwearing. Every part of the plant is used in production, down to the seeds and oils.  Flax crops are naturally very resilient and use far less water and pesticides than other crops such as the cotton plant.  The best flax is grown in Europe due to the ideal weather climate and northern France and Belgium are considered to grow the highest quality flax in the world.
