Il lino è uno dei tessuti più antichi conosciuti ed attualmente più ecologici in circolazione. Si pensa che fosse già ampiamente in uso durante gli antichi Egizi. L'utilizzo di questo tessuto è molto ampio, e spazia dall'abbigliamento, alla realizzazione di biancheria della casa fino ai tendaggi. Molto spesso, soprattutto nell'abbigliamento, per evitare l'effetto stropicciato tipico della sua superficie, viene miscelato con altre fibre naturali come ad esempio il cotone.
