Scutching (defibring)

After bailing, the harvested raw material is transported to an existing scutching mill that will process the harvest into long fibers, short fibers and shives under a working agreement negociated between DARLEEN and the mill. DARLEEN will pay the defibring service to the mill, and will market all the fibers (long and short) and by-products (shives, seeds) obtained to the world market.

The spinning mills located in Poland, mostly being daughter-companies of large French, Belgian or Italian weaving mills, are forming the bulk of our potential clients for long as well as for short textile flax fibers. Due to their proximity with Western Ukraine, they are forming a logical market for our productions.
