Long live bed linen! From the conception in Switzerland to the repair of a missing button - even after years of use, Christian Fischbacher stands for concrete sustainability.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainable by tradition<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Christian Fischbacher has been an emblem of sustainability for over 200 years. Only through far-sighted decisions has the company been able to be so successful for so long. And that doesn't just include economic decisions and a positive image. Rather, it is about the appreciation of people and the preservation of the region that make this success possible. For Christian Fischbacher, sustainability was an issue even before the word entered common parlance.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A company can only survive for decades if it makes responsible decisions for the future. This applies both to projects that have an impact on the environment and to considerations that have social significance.

Sustainable right from the start: materials with added value<\/span>

Sustainability for the PURE line<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With the PURE <\/span>terry<\/a>towelling<\/a>line,<\/a> we have made organically grown and pollutant-tested organic cotton in twelve different shades into our top terry towelling collection. Certified by Made in Green by OEKO-TEX\u00ae, the terry towels not only have the usual excellent Fischbacher quality, but also a traceable supply chain. Made by people in socially responsible, safe workplaces, these bathroom textiles feel heavenly in every respect.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our PURE bath r ugs are<\/span> \n<\/span>another<\/a>highlight.<\/a>Designed<\/a>with natural materials and made with unparalleled softness, they are the perfect addition to the bathroom. This timeless design comes in seven different color variations, where we cleverly combine two PURE terry colors to create a vibrant and natural m\u00e9lange effect. The material mix of 50% organic cotton and 50% linen ensures a refined and aesthetic feel in perfect harmony with nature.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Environmentally friendly, exclusive sleeping comfort with linen<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n


Linen fabrics are our passion! These natural fibres are not only characterized by their wonderful texture and durability, but also gain in charm with every wash. They become softer and smoother from time to time, they are extremely absorbent and can soak up up to 20 percent of their own weight in liquid, which they then quickly release back into the air. This ensures a pleasantly fresh and dry feeling - ideal for anyone who appreciates natural materials and maximum comfort!

Christian Fischbacher production processes: local and social<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Christian Fischbacher's production processes rely on local and regional resources. It all starts in the design studio at the headquarters in St. Gallen, where new ideas and innovative concepts are created.

Our textile finishing is run by a traditional family business in its third generation.

of expertise and craftsmanship. Quality instead of quantity is the motto in the tailoring department, which produces around 4000 items every week.
<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We focus on tailor-made production rather than mass production. Each order is made individually and according to demand, so that we can avoid unnecessary stock and respond efficiently to customer requests.

It is only thanks to our strong roots that we can enjoy international success, which is also guaranteed by the prestige that our location and our history give us.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Social responsibility is therefore a matter of course for the company. We guarantee secure and fairly paid jobs along the entire production chain.

Because Christian Fischbacher has stood for reliability, quality and steadfast principles for over 200 years.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have been working with some of our partner companies for over 100 years. This is only possible because we always keep our word, enter into reliable and long-term relationships and make no compromises when it comes to values. For example, our extra long staple cotton of the highest quality is produced by an Austrian weaving mill.
