LIBECO found its beginnings in 1858 within the region of Flanders Belgium where farmers would weave linen to get by during the harsh winter months.
With the dawn of the industrial revolution Libeco found opportunity, purchasing a weaving mill and beginning widespread production. This mill is still used today more than 150 years later.
The Flemish landscape around Kortrijk was completely transformed by the prosperity brought about by linen. In 19th century Meulebeke, more than 65% of the population worked in the flax industry. Today you can still find streets named after flax, retting and even linen (Vlasstraat, Roterijstraat, and Linnenstraat). The best flax in the world is still grown in this region.
All LIBECO linen is woven in Belgium. Their products are made with great care, for the product, but also for the environment. Over the last few years, LIBECO has made significant steps in becoming a CO2 neutral company and by launching a 100% organic linen collection.
