Legend’Enhaut

What they make

According to their website, Legend'Enhaut is a French designer and manufacturer of jacquard-woven fabrics inspired by Alpine mountain themes, based in La Grave-La Meije, Hautes-Alpes, within the Ecrins national park. It states its collections grew out of 20 years of prior experience in the European textile industry, and now markets more than fifty named collections such as Snow, Seven Summits, Highlands, Grindelwald and Refuges & Bivouacs. Weaving is done in-house on six electronic jacquard looms, with patterns and control programs designed by the company itself. Fabrics use natural fibers - linen, hemp, cotton and wool, pure or blended, with some polyester for specific needs - dyed with Indanthren or reactive dyes and finished by washing, resin treatment and calendering; the company also offers printing, embroidery and custom production. For mountain hotels, inns and altitude restaurants it supplies a flame-retardant and outdoor range built on a patented, permanent fire-resistant fiber meeting mandatory fire-safety rules. Beyond fabric by the metre, it makes curtains, cushions, bedding, table linen, bath textiles, rugs and hemp bags, sold through partner decor boutiques across several European countries.
