Spinning
flax includes all the different operations that transform the fibres
into yarn. During this stage, the material takes on its structure.
With the best European raw materials, the very last technology and
a highly specialised savoir-faire all at their disposal, Belgian
Linen produces various high quality yarns, to suit market needs
and expectations. The techniques implemented in order to untangle,
even out,draft and spin the fibres to obtain the textile yarn vary
according to the raw material used and the type of yarn to be produced.
There are two traditional transformation methods to spin pure flax
yarn: Scutched flax spinning, using the long fibres extracted from
the plant during scutching; Tow spinning, for the shorter fibres
that are the by-products of hackling or scutching operations. |
