We are proud to announce it officially: the expansion, research and development project of Lin des Pyrénées has been co-financed by the European Union, with the support of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region. An institutional partnership that strengthens our approach as a local supply chain of excellence and accelerates our development in the service of the region.

Decisive European support for a 100% Pyrenean supply chain

Building an oilseed flax supply chain of "100% Pyrenees Origin" is a long-term commitment: variety selection, cultivation, processing, gastronomic promotion, nutritional research. European co-financing enables Lin des Pyrénées to reach a decisive milestone on three fronts: industrial expansion, research & development and promoting the products to chefs, artisans and discerning consumers.

This support is part of the strategy of Nouvelle-Aquitaine and the European Union in favour of local agriculture, regional food sovereignty and sustainable short supply chains. Find out more about European schemes on the portal L’Europe s’engage en Nouvelle-Aquitaine.

A short supply chain approach aligned with European values

Our specifications have always been demanding: zero plant protection products, zero waste, no irrigation and no water abstraction across the entire value chain. An approach that preserves the resource in both quantity and quality and meets the ambitions of the European Green Deal for low-impact agriculture.

  • Local agriculture: practices that respect the soils and biodiversity of the Pyrenees.
  • 100% local supply chain: cultivation, processing and packaging as close as possible to the fields.
  • Eco-responsibility: no irrigation, no pesticides, full use of the plant.
  • Nutritional quality: a source of omega-3 naturally present in linseed oil, flaxseed flour and flaxseeds.

Concrete benefits for the region

This European co-financing does not just support a company: it supports a local ecosystem. Partner farmers, artisans, ambassador chefs, specialist retailers - all benefit from the move upmarket of a supply chain whose reputation now reaches well beyond the Pyrenees. We recently had the pleasure of taking our products to the foot of the Eiffel Tower and of taking part in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Agricultural Show, key events for making our work known to as many people as possible.

A collective story to continue together

Through this institutional support, Europe and the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region recognise the relevance of a project that combines nutrition, health and pleasure and strives to reveal the full richness of oilseed flax through an approach of artisanal intelligence. We welcome this strong signal, which commits us to pursuing our constant quest for excellence, authenticity and distinctiveness.
