Hemp & Linen are the Best Fibers for Sustainable Food Packaging
If your goal is to reduce plastic in packaging without losing reliability, hemp and linen are the practical choice.
Proven Food-Safe Performance
Hemp and linen are naturally safe for direct food contact and contain no synthetic coatings. This eliminates compliance risks and concerns about chemical migration into packaged goods.
Reliable Strength
They maintain secure tension, resist fraying, and hold through packing, shipping and retail display. Performance matches or exceeds synthetic alternatives while preserving a clean, professional appearance.
Genuine Sustainability
Hemp and linen twines are fully biodegradable and compostable. After use, they break down without leaving microplastics, unlike petroleum-based cords.

Lower Impact from the Start
Hemp and flax (linen’s source plant) require minimal water and pesticides, deliver high fiber yields and support soil health.
Presentation That Supports Your Brand
Natural fiber twines reinforce clean-label, organic and artisanal positioning, giving products an authentic, high-quality finish that aligns with customer expectations.
