The Russian Flax has become one of the most significant events in Russia's textile industry and agribusiness. This is a fascinating exhibition that celebrates local textile heritage and innovation.
The overall aim of the exhibition is to enable the participants to exchange opinions, experiences, good practices and resources related to flax growing and linen industry, and to ensure that the knowledge created is effectively shared and used in the Russian regions.
The exhibition is a wonderful opportunity for producers to establish a brand image and promote their products on the domestic market.
Flax is a plant that has been the mainstay of the region's economy and life since ancient times. Flax was grown here as the main raw material for fabrics. Clothes, porridge, seeds for salads, garden plants - flax had a wide range of uses.
Russian flax is a unique opportunity to dive into the rich local tradition of linen production, a journey that explores this timeless craft and its contemporary applications to design and products - starting from the intricate processes from flax to linen.
