Water is one of the incomprehensible, wonderful things, which makes our planet inhabitable.

Water covers more than 70% of our planet and constitutes 72% of our bodies. However, according to United Nations access to the water supply will be reduced by 30% over the next 20 years.

At Linum, we are extra careful with our use of water. In our cotton production, which is based in southern India, we clean all the water used in the the dyeing process. In fact, we recycle 94% of all the water and take great care to ensure that no contaminated waste is disposed of into the environment. Our production is ISO 14001-certified, and we only work with Oko-tex approved colour pigments. This means that our production does not include any chemicals that are be harmful to our health.

At Linum, we are not satisfied with certifications only. Ever since the founding of our company in 1966, we always strive to improve things to ensure a sustainable development. We recycle and clean the water through a process of reverse osmosis. Just recently we began using wind power as part of our energy use.
