Support “Fibre to Fabric” Crowdfunder

A loop-closing project to Restore and Renew our textile heritage in Northern Ireland! 

Mourne Textiles and Mallon Linen have teamed up for this valuable crowdfunded project to restore key pieces of machinery which would enable the full circular production of flax and linen to resume in Northern Ireland.
They say; 

Our project is aimed at not only preserving but bringing to life the exceptional heritage of the Northern Ireland textile industry. We believe in a green and sustainable future, where innovation meets tradition and tradition informs innovation. Join us in restoring vintage flax processing and spinning equipment and reviving the full natural fibre manufacturing process. Let's celebrate and learn from our shared history while creating a new industry that is sustainable, non-polluting, and fit for the 21st century.

Our mission is to develop a new net-zero raw material supply chain for high-value manufacturing industries, rejuvenating equipment, and technology to deliver that based on our shared history. We plan to locate and learn from those who worked in the industry, celebrating and recording these skills. By logging and learning from our shared history, we can create new wealth and valuable skills for generations to come. Our project has tremendous historical value to Northern Ireland and the textile industry, and we need your support to make it a reality. Join us in celebrating our heritage and shaping a brighter future through the power of textiles, “Fibre to Fabric”.

YES PLEASE! this project is an essentail step towards a more sustainable future for textiles but they need your help – you can donate now to the Crowdfunding Campaign and don’t forget to share, share, share to give them every chance of meeting their goal.
