Linen Club Jalgaon

The incredible fabric, Linen, is the oldest fabric woven on earth. The human civilization reached a pinnacle of achievement when Linen was discovered. Linen has a wealth of properties that almost no other natural fabric can boast of. Linen symbolises a regal elegance that defines the erstwhile royal fabric, once widely worn by the monarchs of the world.

The Egyptians first discovered the flax plant, from which linen was woven. Ancient Egyptians believed that linen was a gift of God and regarded it as sacred.

Linen probably came to Ireland in early christian times. It was the Irish, who popularised linen worldwide and St. Patrik, the patron Saint of Ireland, is said to be buried in a shroud of linen. The production of Linen continued through the Middle Ages, but it was not until the 17th Century that the industry started to develop in a structured way, initially under the guidance of the Earl Stafford and the Duke of Ormonde.

Although the world had seen much of linen by the 20th century, this incredible fabric was first brought to India by Jaya Shree Textiles in the year 1949. Sourcing the raw fibres from Belgium and France, Jaya Shree Textiles manufactures linen under the brand of Linen Club Fabrics with the finest European technology incorporated in the spinning, weaving, and processing functions, to produce unparalleled quality of European Linen, right here in India.
