Ekelund, Linneväveriet i Horred AB

Ekelund is Sweden's oldest weaving mill with textile traditions dating back to the 1400s and as a company since 1692. Artisanally crafted textiles with timeless designs made in our factory in Horred on the Swedish west coast. All production in the weaving mill takes place in our own factory. We import yarns, then we weave, prepare, and manufacture. Today, our products can be found all over the world - from small shops to large chains, both physical stores and online retailers. We are nearly 30 employees who together manage the entire chain in the company, from design to finished product, customer service, and finance.

Our first delivery to the Swedish royal court was made in 1878 to Gustav V and continues to this day. Being a royal court supplier is a prestigious distinction we carry with pride.

Next door to the weaving mill, you will find our store with our current collections and a large factory sale. Here you can also visit our museum. And for those curious about how our textiles are created - take a free weaving mill tour and follow our team to see how the products come to life. 

 

Purveyor to the Royal Court of Sweden

Becoming a royal court supplier is a prestigious honor that we at Ekelund Linneväveri are very proud of. It is a confirmation that our meticulously crafted textiles have been particularly appreciated by the members of the Swedish royal family. This honor, bestowed by His Majesty the King, testifies to our long tradition of craftsmanship and sustainable quality.

As a royal court supplier, we see it as our mission to maintain the high standard expected of us. Every product we create, from our beautiful tablecloths to our popular towels, reflects our commitment to environmentally friendly production and our roots in Swedish textile history. It is with humility and pride that we continue our work, aiming to earn and keep the court's trust. Ekelund Linneväveri represents a unique combination of tradition and innovation, where every woven thread is an expression of our heritage and our future.

Mission

By offering timeless products that reflect the present, we position ourselves for the conscious consumer. Inspired by the Scandinavian design heritage and the natural beauty of our surroundings, we create high-quality and practical textiles for both today's and tomorrow's homes.
 

Vision

Ekelund stands as a proud symbol of a global presence rooted in the rich Swedish design tradition. Our design philosophy is simple yet profound: to create inspiring and timeless patterns that evoke a sense of home, every day, for both current and future generations.

Contemporary

In Ekelund's world, every day is an opportunity to grow and renew. With one foot in tradition and one in the future, we embrace the spirit of the times, always open to new ideas and attentive to our customers' wishes.

We constantly renew our range with patterns that reflect the contemporary and our strive to always be at the forefront.
We aspire to: a seamless coexistence between tradition and innovation, where every fiber we weave is a step towards a more sustainable and inspiring world.

Sustainable

Our environmentally labeled and organic products, made from carefully selected natural materials, are at the heart of our sustainable approach. By having full control over the entire production chain, we can constantly fine-tune our manufacturing to match demand and avoid overproduction. 

With each use, our textiles not only become softer and more inviting, but they also tell a story. A story of care, of tradition, and of a promise to future generations. This is our way of giving back, our way of ensuring that every product we create not only serves the present but also the future.

Genuine

Ekelund is more than a company; it is a living tradition, rooted in the scenic Horred, in the heart of Viskadalen. We are committed to contributing to the development of the community and creating local job opportunities.

Every product woven in our factory is a tribute to knowledge, passion, and craftsmanship. From the first stroke on the design sketch to the final detail on the finished textile, we take unique responsibility for the entire chain and guarantee that every Ekelund product is an ambassador of our heritage, our quality, and our promise to the future.

 

Do the right thing, even when no one is watching.

Genuine is doing the right thing, even when no one is watching
Ekelund was one of the world's first textile companies to be environmentally certified in 1995 with Bra miljöval. Since then, environmental thinking has been integrated into everything we do. Everything in our production is organic, GOTS-certified, and 100% made in Sweden in Horred. 

Production within our own walls
At a time when a large part of the sewing industry is outsourced abroad, we have proudly chosen to keep production within our own walls. This is not only to ensure quality and control over production but also to maintain job opportunities in Horred and minimize transportation. Our dedicated staff manually handle all orders. This meticulousness ensures that every product is packaged with the right dimensions, without unnecessary fillers, and with unparalleled personal service for you as a customer.
