Lapuan Kankurit linen and wool textiles

FROM THE WEAVERS OF GOOD LIFE

In the beginning, there is yarn. From this yarn we weave a good life, responsibly, respecting the environment. Our roots go all the way back to 1917.

We weave natural raw materials, linen and wool. We weave Nordic design, inspired by our pure nature. To balance out the chilling climate of the north, we weave heaps of warmth and softness into our textiles.

LAPUAN KANKURIT RAISES FUNDS DURING GOOD SPIRIT FRIDAY

Lapuan Kankurit celebrates with good deeds. Instead of Black Friday sales, the company's stores, Outlet, Store & Studio, and online store celebrates Good Spirit Friday. On Friday, 29th November, Lapuan Kankurit donates also this year 20% of all sales to the Hyvä Joulumieli campaign.

The Christmas Spirit fundraising campaign is run by the Mannerheim League for Child Welfare and the Finnish Red Cross together with the Finnish Broadcasting Company Yle. Its purpose is to donate food vouchers to families with children, so they can buy food for Christmas. Lapuan Kankurit emphasises responsibility and sustainable development in everything they do. The company has celebrated Good Spirit Friday since year 2016 and aims to make it into a lasting tradition.

By 2024, we will have donated a total of EUR 11,300 to the campaign.

The wool of Finnish sheep will be utilised for industrial purposes

Lapuan Kankurit has been investing in a new spinning and finishing mill 2021-2024. We hope to lead the way in the responsible utilisation of Finnish wool.

”We are a rebuilding a production line that had already disappeared from Finland. We are combining old knowhow with new technology.”

NATURAL MATERIALS

Lapuan Kankurit sources the Finnsheep wool fibre, utilized in their wool yarns, locally. The yarn made from this fibre is spun to be either natural brown or beige, and some are dyed further with natural dyes or even with "left over coffee".

OWN PRODUCTION

The Weaving Mill Is Our Heart. Developing the best textiles in the world is our passion. The world is changing, and Lapuan Kankurit has the courage to develop entirely new products and invest in our own production.

SUSTAINABLE DESIGN

We manufacture products that stand the test of time. We are constantly developing new techniques and looking for new innovations. We are willing to put effort into making sure weaving skills are preserved to future generations.

WOVEN JOURNEY 1973 - 2023

2023 was the 50th birthday of Lapuan Kankurit. 50 years filled with exultant joys, heart-breaking hardships, remarkable friendships, bold breakthroughs, beautiful designs – 50 years filled with more memories than a mind could possibly hold.

Our family’s journey in the world of textiles began all the way back in 1917 with Juho Annala, who founded a felt boot factory in Lapua and subsequently laid the groundwork for the founding of Lapuan Kankurit in 1973. The past is the cornerstone on which we ground our work and our mission.

Our woven journey will continue.
