LANGYARNS - Quality since 1867
150 years as a company in the textile industry, LANGYARNS is a family business, now in its 6th generation.
“Our passion lies with our products, the yarns and the pieces that our customers create with them.”
Oceania
Be inspired by colourful coral reefs, majestic sea creatures, mysterious shipwrecks and densely populated kelp forests.
During the course of evolution, we moved out of the water onto the land. For the yarn OCEANIA, we decided to look back to our origins and search out innovative fibres from the oceans.
Enriched with brown algae from seaweed, SEACELL is nourishing and revitalizing for the skin. It is moisture-wicking and completely biodegradable. The algae used in the fibres come from the oceans, they are harvested in fjords using sustainable methods.
