ekoa
Lingrove
ekoa is a natural and durable wall covering made from rapidly renewable flax, ideal for hospitality, healthcare, workplace, and residential interiors. Free from Red List chemicals and petroleum-based ingredients, it supports healthy indoor air and is naturally low in VOCs.
ekoa is regenerative. Flax, its main ingredient, grows in just 90 days and is carbon-negative, capturing more CO₂ than it emits. The only other material used in its manufacturing is a plant-based bio resin, a proprietary composite technology that gives ekoa the strength and impact resistance needed for hospitality settings, health-care facilities, and workplaces. Because the finish is built into the material itself, no additional coatings or treatments are required.
ekoa is also curve-ready, down to a three-inch radius, allowing it to be applied to a wide range of surfaces—from flat walls to architectural features and furniture. With 14 rich tones ranging from warm beige to deep charcoal, all with nonrepeating fiber patterns, ekoa brings depth and texture to walls, ceilings, and even furniture.
