White Fir
Fabric is potentially the last thing you would think a tree can produce. Nevertheless, for some time now clothing from lenpur has on the market. What is lenpur? It is a fiber made from the pulp of the white fir tree. This pulp is sustainably harvested from said trees in order to make the fibers that are in turn converted into a range of goods.

What does it feel like? Despite coming from a tree, lenpur fabrics have a soft hand not unlike that of cashmere. Because of its soft feel, lenpur fabrics are today being used for outer- and undergarments. Fabrics made from lenpur fibers are known for their absorbency and anti-odor properties.
We do not currently carry lenpur fabrics at our online fabric store. We do carry such organic and natural fabrics as bamboo, seacell, cotton/bamboo blends and organic cotton.

Thanks for the informative post and for actually replying to your readers’ comments. That’s something I don’t see very many blog owners doing and that makes me frustrated. Keep up the good work and I’ll continue coming back here to learn more….
I just learned of lenpur fabric.The picture of the tree above looks like a white spruce tree,picea glauca, not the white pine, pinus strobus, from which comes the cellulose fibre for lenpur fabric.
Thank you for your added insight Catharine.
