Madagascar raffia is a natural fiber from the leaves of the raffia farinifera , a palm tree endemic to the island. This plant material is renowned for its flexibility, robustness and high quality, making it a sought-after product in the fields of crafts and the textile industry. Used in particular for the manufacture of bags, hats, carpets and ropes, raffia is appreciated for its natural aesthetic and durability. It should also be noted that 80% of the best quality raffia in the world comes from Madagascar , reinforcing the international reputation of this resource.
Raffia is harvested in a respectful and sustainable way, by removing the mature leaves of the palm tree one by one , without damaging the trunk or the base of the plant. This method allows the growth cycle of the tree to not be interrupted, thus guaranteeing a renewable resource. Once the leaves are harvested, they are dried to obtain the fibers, which can then be dyed or used in their natural shade.
