About Tuchfabrik Leichtfried

Ever since 1884, Leichtfried Loden in Austria has specialised in producing high quality woollen cloth & loden fabrics made primarily from extra fine Australian Merino wool. The carefully selected raw materials pass through many different stages in a complete and fully integrated production process - from the spinning of fine woollen yarns and weaving of greige fabrics right through to the finished cloth. Meticulous quality assurance procedures throughout the entire production process ensure that customers can always rely on first-class quality. The combination of longstanding experience, consistent craftsmanship and modern technology has enabled the woollen mill to look back on more than 130 years of the company’s history. It remains the backbone behind the company’s success today. Tradition and innovation coupled with an intuitive grasp of high quality apparel and interior fabrics means that the company can look forward to the future with confidence. Loden has long been known as the fabric par excellence for traditional costume clothing in Austria and South Germany. However, the family business has now managed to produce even finer, lighter and softer fabrics – which explains why they are increasingly being used in the fashion and haute couture industries. Many prestigious European clothing brands and internationally renowned fashion houses trust in the quality of Leichtfried Loden 1884. In addition to Australian merino wool, Leichtfried also processes the finest premium fibres such as Cashmere, Mohair or Alpaca. The fabrics are sold directly ex works, at international textile fairs as Première Vision or Munich Fabric Start and via a global network of representatives – particularly in Austria, Germany, France, Italy, Great Britain and the United States of America.
