PHILOSOPHY
We strive for full client satisfaction on every level by furnishing them with fabrics and textile products that will make a clear difference through:
DESIGN
As far as design is concerned, our creative department spots and picks up trends in their earliest stages, long before they become mainstream.
LUXURY
Furthermore we do not compromise on quality. Our products are generally qualified as extremely durable and luxurious, thanks to the exquisite yarns, craftsmanship, knowhow and meticulous production techniques.
CUSTOMIZATION
Size and nature of your design, weaving and/or printing and a large choice of finishings, personalization, the colors of your choice, the required stain release or fire retardant coating… as far as customization is concerned everything can be done to meet your needs and wishes.
ORIGIN
We are proud of our Belgian/Flemish origin and of our Belgian and French workforce. Everything we sell is made in our own mills, with raw materials we source from central European countries. What better proof of quality can you possibly require?
HISTORY
The roots of the Fibertex company go back as far as the nineteen-twenties when Emile Legon started his flax and cotton bleaching and dyeing business in Kortrijk. In the mid-seventies the actual Fibertex company was founded, now combining both weaving and finishing activities.
Continuous growth and subsequent investments led to the need for larger production facilities. The actual plant and headquarters on the grounds of the Kortrijk/Wevelgem airport date from 1992 and present the state-of-the-art in weaving, printing and finishing of textile niche products such as upholstery, curtains and textile wall coverings.
The common thread through the entire company history: the Legon family. Today’s ownership and management of the Fibertex company is in the hands of already the 4th Legon generation. This family approach stands for a daily and far-reaching involvement of the management, for real customer intimacy and for short communication lines.
Deltracon is a family owned weaving mill of high end linen fabrics.
Deltracon was founded in 1990 by Rudy & Kathleen Delchambre. In 2013 their daughter, Darline, also started working in the company.
We produce linen fabrics for sheers, drapery, upholstery and wallcovering. Some or our fabrics are also used for bed- and table linen. Plains, dobbies, jacquards and embroidered fabrics are produced in 140/150 or 300 cm. Using natural noble materials has always been our passion.
In 2009 we took over a Belgian trimming company and renamed it Flanders’ Trimmings.
This company produces high quality trimmings & tiebacks/tassels.
After the unfortunate demise of Van Maele Weavers in October 2018, Deltracon decided not to let Van Maele’s history go lost since it suited so well with its’ own.
We purchased 10 weaving looms with 24 shafts, the entire yarn stock, archives and the Van Maele name.
These additional looms will enable Deltracon to produce more complicated dobby designs and paperbacked wallcoverings.
Deltracon treasures the past, present and is especially looking to the future since now a complete range of home furnishing fabrics can be offered.
