1 LINEN - AN INNOVATIVE & HEALTHY NATURAL FIBRE

2 CLUB MASTERS OF LINEN PIERRE FREY - MASTERS OF LINEN AMBASSADOR Club Masters of Linen gathers and promotes the certified European textile companies: spinners, weavers and knitters who have opted for 100% European traceability and want to offer their clients brands and/or consumers a differentiation tool, a high value-added identity.

3 Ecological, Sustainable, Resistant, Linen,fibre of the future

4 Why does Pierre Frey love linen? LINEN : A FIBRE MADE IN FRANCE 80% of the world s production of scutched flax fibers are originated from Europe, and France is the world leader. Cultivated at close-proximity, flax is grown in a wide coastal band of Western Europe stretching from the South of Normandy in Northern France through Belgium and the Netherlands : from Caen to Amsterdam. The only plant textile fiber originating on the continent, European linen cultivation cannot be relocated, its excellence is thanks to a unique combination : a natural, damp ocean climate, flax s low thermal density, a rich soil and the experience of flax growers. THE BENEFITS OF LINEN EASY UPKEEP HYPO-ALLERGENIC & ANTI-BACTERIAL BIODEGRADABLE NON POLLUTING THERMOREGULATORY BREATHABILITY

6 THE LINEN LIFE CYCLE MARCH-APRIL JUNE JULY AUGUST PLANTING FLOWERING HARVESTING RETTING Planted between mid-march and mid-april, the seed takes 100 days to gow and reach 1 meter when it flowers. Though the Linen flower only lives a few hours atop its supple stem, all flowers in a field do not bloom on the same day; This is what gives the landscape a delicate blue-ish color for a few weeks, moving like an Impressionist sea in the wind. We don t reap linen, we pull it up! It is pulled up when the leaves have dropped off the bottom third of the stem. The plants are then placed in swaths of cloth (one - meter wide linen sheets) which give the field a graphic beauty. The capsules holding the seeds take on a brownish-yellow color. The first phase of transforming the plant to fibers : Mother Nature takes over. Sun, dew and rain help detach the fibrous skin from the central wood, the stems take on a beautiful russet hue. Then comes the time for gathering.

7 DID YOU KNOW? SCUTCHING & COMBING SPINNING WEAVING & FINISHING SCUTCHING The second phase for mechanically transforming the plant into fibers: to use the linen fibers which surround the central wood like skin, it is necessary to separate them. COMBING Combing is the preparation for spinning, a homogenization of fibers into soft, lustrous ribbons like blond hair. SPINNING The third phase of tranformation: Untangle, regularize, stretch, thread fibers. The spinning process comprises various operations which make it possible to transform the fibers into yarn. There are two main techniques: thick yarns for decoration are obtained by dry spinning; Fine yarns for clothing and household linen, by wet spinning. WEAVING Who has not dreamed of a linen jacquard? But do you know that linen is also developed in serge, herringbone, glen plaids, double-weaves, velvet, floating yarns, gauze, satin... FINISHING The ultimate step in fabric processing, finishing includes treatments designed to change the appearance of the yarn or linen fabrics and giving them the values sought by consumers in terms of comfort, aesthetics, functionality. Four categories are distinguished: bleaching, dyeing, printing and finishing.

8 FROM SEED TO FIBER SCUTCHING Scutching, a specialized mechanical process, includs shelling, stretching, grinding and treshing. The sunny, sensual fragrances of cut grass and warm bread float in the air.

10 FROM SEED TO FIBER COMBING Combing is the preparation for spinning, a homogenization of fibers into soft, lustrous ribbons like blond hair.

12 FROM FIBER TO YARN SPINNING The first stage of spinning is an assembly, comparable to the methods used for champagne and cognac. The ribbons from different plots of land, regions and years are mixed to obtain an optimal quality and constant in the duration.

13 WEAVING History, know-how, innovations, luxury: the most beautiful linen fabrics are produced in Europe. Who has not dreamed of a linen jacquard? But do you know that linen is also developed in serge, herringbone, glen plaids, double-weaves, velvet, floating yarns, gauze, satin...

14 FROM YARN TO PIERRE FREY LINEN MANUFACTURE IN THE NORTH OF FRANCE Known and recognized as an editor, Pierre Frey is also a French manufacturer with finely honed expertise. Weaving, knotting, warping, gluing: these are the trades and skills we are passionate about. Since 1938, they have been the beating heart of the production site at Montigny-en-Cambresis in the north of France. The manufacture holds the prestigious French EPV label (Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant, or Living Heritage Company). This label was very selectively awarded by the French Ministry of the Economy, Industry and Employment to French firms with traditional expertise and to outstanding manufacturers.

15 KNOW-HOW The site consists of 23 looms divided into two categories: the jacquard looms, allowing to design patterned fabrics, and plain looms. 250,000 meters are woven each year thanks to the know-how and the meticulous work of the weavers. This is where the Pierre Frey fabrics are born, which are then exported all over the world.
