Flax & Stitch has made reusable alternatives to single-use bags and wraps since 2007. Muriel started the business, and it is still family-owned and based in Jemeppe-sur-Sambre, Belgium. Our products replace items such as plastic freezer bags, paper bread bags and cling film, and have been sent to more than 14,000 customers in 35 countries.

Made in Belgium
Our sewn products are made in Belgian sheltered workshops (Entreprises de Travail Adapté) that give people with disabilities meaningful work.

What we make
- Flaxie Freeze reusable freezer bags in PUL, in 23 plain colours and 5 sizes, with a 5-year guarantee that also covers purchases made through stockists. We repair first, and replace if a bag cannot be repaired.
- Lunch bags and wraps in PUL, in over 100 fabric designs.
- Bread and baguette bags in double-layer cotton, with an Oeko-Tex or organic cotton exterior and an unbleached, untreated organic cotton lining, in over 100 fabric designs.
- Bowl covers in translucent EVA tested for food safety, with an elastic edge, finished with a cotton bias binding in a Liberty print or plain colour.

All our PUL (polyurethane-laminated polyester) products are independently tested for food contact (Celabor, Belgium), PVC-free and machine washable at 60°C.

Our approach
We focus on three things: quality materials, a wide choice of sizes and designs, and fair prices, which we keep low by spending little on advertising. We have been members of 1% for the Planet since 2021, contributing 1% of annual sales to verified environmental projects. Through Tree-Nation we plant at least one tree with every order, and we have planted more than 9,500 trees so far.

For retailers
Most of our range is available in packs of 5 mixed patterns, so you can offer your customers variety without carrying every design. If you prefer certain colours or pattern types, add a note to your order and we will do our best to match it.
