BACK TO THE FUTURE
It is indeed an ancient story to note that since antiquity, hemp fibers have been used for clothing, ropes, and boat sails, for the manufacturing of jeans, and many other uses. But it is also true that with the industrial use of cotton in Europe, followed by synthetic fibers, hemp fell into disuse in Europe, prompting users to resort to imports, particularly from Asia. In this context, and recognizing the market potential, LA CHANVRIÈRE took the bet to produce textile fibers with current technologies. The cooperative is therefore currently running several research and development programs. It draws on the expertise and know-how of several leading companies in their fields, not hesitating to collaborate with them for the development of production and transformation solutions, and to meet their needs and specifications in:
- Clothing
- Furniture
- Technical fabrics
For all these applications, LA CHANVRIÈRE has created its textile brand CANALIA for its certified textile fibers.

BUT STARTING FROM THE FIELD
While the technique is a precise science, LA CHANVRIÈRE is aware that this bet can only succeed by mastering the methods of cultivation and harvesting under specific conditions, themes that will resonate with mastering the transformation of the plant at every stage of the production process of yarn. This is why potential customers of LA CHANVRIÈRE expect their supplier to have the full capacity to harness nature to provide them with the optimal product, enabling them to create a wide range of yarns intended for furniture and clothing.
