FLAX
- Description: FLAX TOW - When pure flax fiber (see flax) is produced from flax straw by combing with steel combs, the short fibers or tow are left behind; these short fibers are traded as flax tow or pluckings. Tow comprises the random fibers arising as waste from the processing of stalk fibers. Lower grade unretted flax straw is converted into flax tow by tow finishing.
