Our Product Line
Our line of natural fiber products is processed from waste straw and is a blend of oilseed flax fiber and flax shive. We also source and process hemp straw.
We process our straw into the following innovative products:
Flax80Blend is a blend targeting 80% flax fiber content. Flaxblends are also used to make natural, environmentally sustainable fiberboard panels. Flax is mixed with other agri-forestry products and resins to create building material products for both interior and exterior applications.
FlaxCustomBlend is our technical grade flax fiber which is cleaned and customized based on customer specifications targeting a range of 5% to 15% shive content. FlaxCustomBlend can be used as substitutes in a wide range of manufacturing applications.
FlaxMulch or raw shive can be burned loose or used as mulch in commercial growing applications.
FlaxShiveBlend is a combination of fiber and shive that will not exceed 50% fiber content and is used in applications not requiring the cleanliness of the higher blends.
FlaxBed is premium horse bedding containing the larger shive fractions. It has low dust with a neutral ph providing a healthy environment for both horses and handlers. Beds made from Flax are not only dry, but warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
