About Callin
Leading in sourcing flax
Callin is a family-run business with an ongoing passion for processing and sourcing flax.
It’s a story full of dedication and craftsmanship that started in the early years of the 19th century. In 1986 the company was given the name ‘Callin’.
Now the fourth generation of the family has entered the world of flax.
In the early years at Callin, the main focus was on manufacturing plumbing flax but soon the opportunity arose to source flax fibres such as scutched flax and flax tow.
Today, we are envisioning the future as one of the leading resource players of European flax fibres. Thanks to our highly distinctive characteristics, we are now at the forefront of the industry.
Relations
Extensive relations with all European flax growers and scutchers.
Location
Strategically located in Mouscron, Belgium, near France and close to the Netherlands. In these regions, flax grows optimally because of the climate conditions, the privileged soil structure and the hands-on experience of the flax growers.
