Secrets Of Linen in a nutshell
“Secrets of Linen” handtufted rugs are the brain child of the Belgian linen producer Nv Jos Vanneste who has long been promoting the exceptional properties of linen yarns, particularly in the context of flooring. With decades of knowledge and experience "secrets of linen" is using only the best quality wet spun linen yarns in their rugs which avoid shedding, give along-lasting durability and have a fantastic sheen. Thus our rugs have become a unique blend of luxury and comfort, of elegance and of down to earth practicality.
Linen
Linen rugs are soft ,yet strong and durable. The more it is used, the softer and stronger it becomes. Linen rugs are thermo regulating (insulating in winter time, cool and breathable in summer time), they can absorb up to 20% of their weight in moisture before they feel damp, and they easily release moisture to the air to remain cool and dry to the touch. Linen creates a healthy environment. It is non-allergenic and anti-bacterial. It is comfortable, stylish and anti-stress.
"Linum Usitatissimum" is Latin for "most useful linen". For ten thousand years man has known this gentle gift of nature as a source of textiles with special properties : soft to the touch, rich colour absorption, lasting durability, and unrivalled comfort. Being an inherent strong plant linen requires a fraction of the pesticides and fertilizers used for the cultivation of cotton. Its processing into fibre, yarn and carpet respects the environment, as it is a purely mechanical process. Thanks to the expertise of European Industrialists, the process of flax and linen is very eco-friendly. The "secrets of linen" collection is made in Belgium by a member of the "Masters of linen" and "Belgian linen" community.
Maintenance
CLEANING: Vacuum once a week at least. You should occasionally fluff up long pile carpets with a special light weight rake (obtainable at most good outlets ).
DEEP CLEANING AND SHAMPOOING: Always use a neutral dry foam shampoo of good quality and follow instructions carefully. Vacuum thoroughly before shampooing and brush the carpet the way the pile wants to go afterwards. Don't get the carpet too wet as you could distort the pile and the backing.
SPOTS AND STAINS: Immediate action with a white, clean towel and water is the key. To avoid spreading, always work inwards from the edge of the stain and don't rub too vigorously.
How we work
At secrets of Linen we opt for flexibility. Shouldn’t you find exactly what you want in our collection it isn’t a problem. We are specialized in custom made products and we would love to take the challenge to make the carpet you have in mind. Select one or more colours, choose a quality, make the design: the possibilities are endless. We take care of the rest. We are keen to work with professionals with special needs.
