Lingrove® Natural Composite Solutions
Lighter than carbon fiber and as stiff as aerospace fiberglass, Lingrove’s Ekoa® helps you differentiate by providing the highest performance plant-based composites.
Lingrove® pre-impregnated (prepreg) flax linen is available in a variety of weights as well as resin options including thermoset and thermoplastics.

Ekoa® is compatible with a variety of resin systems. View Lingrove’s additional services here.
Ecological
Like all composites, Ekoa® is made of fabric + resin, BUT is mostly plant-based rather than from fossil fuels. CO2 negative fibers and eco-resins are worker and planet friendly. Learn More
Vibration Damping
Natural damping enhances product feel by absorbing higher frequency vibrations. Low density Ekoa® offers 3x the vibration damping of glass and 20% more than carbon.
Lightweight
Our natural composites are 15% lower density than carbon fiber. Ekoa®'s stiffness-to-weight ratio surpasses aerospace fiberglass (E-glass), perfect for most demanding applications.
Performance
Ekoa® may look like wood, but it offers a rare blend of high performance and aesthetics. This results in stronger, lighter, and better products.
